dirichlet problem
The Dirichlet problem refers to a mathematical problem that involves finding a solution for a partial differential equation (PDE) in a given region, where the solution is specified on the boundary of that region. It is named after the French mathematician Johann Dirichlet, who made significant contributions to this field. The problem involves determining a function that satisfies the given PDE within the region while meeting the prescribed conditions on its boundary.
