Description: This book delves into the fascinating world of partial difference equations, a powerful mathematical tool used to solve complex problems in physics and other scientific fields. The author explores how these equations can be used to approximate solutions to classic linear partial differential equations, which are notoriously difficult to solve directly. The book focuses on three key areas: elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic cases of partial difference equations. It investigates how solutions to these equations behave when the mesh width, a crucial element in the discretization of continuous variables, approaches zero. This process, known as "convergence," is crucial for ensuring that the solutions of the difference equations accurately reflect the behavior of the corresponding differential equations. The author's analysis reveals that the convergence of solutions depends critically on the relationship between the mesh width and the characteristics of the differential equations. This book offers a groundbreaking approach to the study of partial difference equations, paving the way for a deeper understanding of their applications in a wide range of scientific disciplines.
