v16 v17 13 13 where u is the dependent variable we are solving for, and f is the forcing term. 14 14 15 The solution to this equation needs to simultaneously 1) satisfy this equation at all points within a bounding region and 2) satisfy the boundary conditions on that region. Th is then can be interpretedas an instantaneous system, much different than the wave-like solutions of hyperbolic equations which travel with finite speed.15 The solution to this equation needs to simultaneously 1) satisfy this equation at all points within a bounding region and 2) satisfy the boundary conditions on that region. Thus, this equation + solution can be thought of as an instantaneous system, much different than the wave-like solutions of hyperbolic equations which travel with finite speed. 16 16 17 17 Some special cases for elliptic equations occur when [[latex($\kappa = 1$)]]; when f is non-zero, we have the Poisson equation,
