    The Professor writes out the subject material on the modern blackboard effectively in sync
    with clear explanation, making the subject easy to learn. This is
    what excellent teaching it is.

    I look forward to the day when mathematicians mention "flow fields" in a live lecture, and some future variant of Dall-E automatically creates an animated flow field on the screen. Dynamic systems deserve dynamic representation.

      Just a small issue when it misinterprets things and winds up with NSFW increasing fluid flow through a tightening vortex... you get a very interesting presentation.

    An important fact about harmonic functions (functions that satisfy Laplace equation), is that their sum also satisfies Laplace equation.
    Del^2(f + g) = Del^2(f) + Del^2(g) = 0 + 0
    Since the Laplace operator is a linear operator.

    Love it!
    Question though, doesn’t the potential field still hold for Div * f x Grad V, where “f” is a scalar function? For example, in the standard wave equation, often derived/thought of as a fixed string under tension, the tension is constant. But, for say, a hanging chain, the tension in the chain varies with height and the governing equation involves something like Div * T(x) x Grad U.
    Laplace’s equation and the Laplace operator are really just special cases of the former in a homogenous medium.
    Also, I would LOVE a video about solving Laplace’s equation and the Helmholtz equation (really, finding the Eigenfunctions) on irregular domains. Triangles, or the square with one quadrant removed, etc.
    Thanks for the video!

    Hey when you state steady flow being the change in velocity being zero, does that also mean the vectors are not changing direction based on the definition. So the vector field changes and each vector maybe be different than another but each individual vector is steady?

    What is counterintuitive with mathematics, is that to be more efficient, variables that we can not intuitively know, have to be used.
    Here, we intuitively understand what is the velocity, but it's better to use another quantity, the potential, that is very abstract.
    The same for the complex space. We don't know what it is, but it's easier tu use it rather than the real space.

    Hi Steve, is it correct to assume that divergence free means, colloquially speaking, divergence AND convergence free? In other words, it appears that the term divergence accounts both for expanding and retracting systems?

    Hello, i just watched the two last videos. I'd be great to deal with streamline function, i mean the scalar field which gradient is orthogonal to a given potential vector field. This is very useful to visualize streamlines.
