Partial Differential Equations
Let (E, π, M) be a fiber bundle. An r-th order partial differential equation on π is a closed embedded submanifold S of the jet manifold Jr(π). A solution is a local section σ ∈ ΓW(π) satisfying, forall p in M.
Let us consider an example of a first order partial differential equation.

“America is hard to see.
Less partial witnesses than he
In book on book have testified
They could not see it from outside....”
