Lecture
Laplacian: Basics and Examples
Description
This lecture covers the basics of the Laplacian operator applied to scalar fields, including its definition as the divergence of the gradient of a scalar field. Several examples are provided to illustrate the computation of the Laplacian in different scenarios. The Laplacian's importance in various mathematical models in physics and engineering, particularly in the context of the heat equation, is also discussed.
