Euler–Poisson–Darboux equation

In mathematics, the Euler–Poisson–Darboux^[1]^[2] equation is the partial differential equation

u_{x,y}+{\frac {N(u_{x}+u_{y})}{x+y}}=0.

This equation is named for Siméon Poisson, Leonhard Euler, and Gaston Darboux. It plays an important role in solving the classical wave equation.

This equation is related to

u_{rr}+{\frac {m}{r}}u_{r}-u_{tt}=0,

by $x=r+t$ , $y=r-t$ , where $N={\frac {m}{2}}$ ^[2] and some sources quote this equation when referring to the Euler–Poisson–Darboux equation.^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6]
