Maxwell's equations in a vacuum describe a wave propagating at speed \(c\) as the interaction of electric field \(E\) and magnetic field \(B\): \(\nabla \cdot E = 0\), \(\nabla \times E = -\frac{\partial B}{\partial t}\), \(\nabla \cdot B = 0\), \(\nabla \times B = \frac{1}{c^2} \frac{\partial E}{\partial t}\).

Another common definition of the exponential function to the natural basis, \(e^x\), comes from writing it as the series \(e^x = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{x^k}{k!}\).

The Schrödinger equation, \(i \hbar \frac{\partial \Psi}{\partial t} = \hat H \Psi\), is a partial differential equation for the wave function \(\Psi\) of quantum mechanics.
