Green's Functions For Solving Inhomogeneous Boundary Value Problems
The primary use of Green's functions in mathematics is to solve non-homogeneous boundary value problems. In modern theoretical physics, Green's functions are also usually used as propagators in Feynman diagrams (and the phrase Green's function is often used for any correlation function).

Famous quotes containing the words green, functions, solving, boundary and/or problems:
“Green how I want you green.
Green wind. Green branches.”
—Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)
“In today’s world parents find themselves at the mercy of a society which imposes pressures and priorities that allow neither time nor place for meaningful activities and relations between children and adults, which downgrade the role of parents and the functions of parenthood, and which prevent the parent from doing things he wants to do as a guide, friend, and companion to his children.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
“If we parents accept that problems are an essential part of life’s challenges, rather than reacting to every problem as if something has gone wrong with universe that’s supposed to be perfect, we can demonstrate serenity and confidence in problem solving for our kids....By telling them that we know they have a problem and we know they can solve it, we can pass on a realistic attitude as well as empower our children with self-confidence and a sense of their own worth.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
““Cursed be anyone who moves a neighbor’s boundary marker.” All the people shall say, “Amen!””
—Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 27:17.
“All problems are finally scientific problems.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
