Homogeneous Linear PDEs with Constant Coefficients describe equations critical in various scientific fields including engineering. This unit focuses on the definitions, general forms, and solving methods for these equations, particularly using the Operator method to develop solutions through auxiliary equations. The chapter emphasizes the importance of root types in determining the solution forms and stresses the systematic nature of the operator method for solving homogeneous equations.
