# Differential equations 2
The lecture on differential equations consists of three parts, each with their own video:
- [Higher order linear differential equations]()
- [Partial differential equations: Separation of variables]()
- [Self-adjoint differential operators](#solving-homogeneous-linear-system-with-constant-coefficients)
**Total video length: hour minutes seconds**

### Definitions and examples
A partial differential equation (PDE) is an equation involving a function of two or
more indepenedent variables and derivatives of said function. These equations

in the figure below, regardless of the initial slope, the curves never reach $0$

For boundary value problems like this, there are only solutions for particular
eigenvalues $\lambda$. Coming back to the example, it turns out that solutions

These are still very special solutions. We will begin discussing next how to
obtain the general solution in our example.

As we hinted was possible earlier, let us re-write the previous equation by
defining a linear operator, $L$, acting on the space of functions which satisfy
