Change of variables (PDE)

Often a partial differential equation can be reduced to a simpler form with a known solution by a suitable change of variables.

For change of variables for integration, see integration by substitution.

The article discusses change of variable for PDEs below in two ways:

  1. by example;
  2. by giving the theory of the method.
