Laplace formulated Laplace's equation, and pioneered the Laplace transform which appears in many branches of mathematical physics, a field that he took a leading role in forming.
In mathematics, Laplace's name is most often associated with the "Laplace transform," a technique for solving differential equations. Laplace transforms are an often-used mathematical tool of engineers and scientists.
Laplace formulated the mathematical theory of interparticulate forces which could be applied to mechanical, thermal, and optical phenomena. This theory was replaced in the 1820s, but its emphasis on a unified physical view was important.
Lina Inverse, also called the Dra-Mata (Dragon-Spooker) by people ignorant of her hair-trigger temper, is one of the most powerful users of Black Magic in the Slayers world to date.
