The Euler–Poisson–Darboux equation is the partial differential equation
This equation is named for Siméon Poisson, Leonhard Euler
, and Gaston Darboux. This equation plays important role in solving the classical wave equation.
Partial differential equation
In mathematics, partial differential equations are a type of differential equation, i.e., a relation involving an unknown function of several independent variables and their partial derivatives with respect to those variables...

Leonhard Euler
Leonhard Euler was a pioneering Swiss mathematician and physicist. He made important discoveries in fields as diverse as infinitesimal calculus and graph theory. He also introduced much of the modern mathematical terminology and notation, particularly for mathematical analysis, such as the notion...
