laplace operator on a laplace












2












$begingroup$


What is the result when Laplace operator is applied on Laplace operator, is it



$$nabla^2(nabla^2 r)= nabla^4r = frac{partial^4 r}{partial x^4} + frac{partial^4 r}{partial y^4} + frac{partial^4 r}{partial z^4} $$



or something else with more terms ?



Thanks

    I think we need to define what $cdot$ means in this context.

The way you put it is
$$
nabla^2left( frac{partial^2 r}{partial x^2} + frac{partial^2 r}{partial y^2} + frac{partial^2 r}{partial z^2}right)=
frac{partial^4 r}{partial x^4} + frac{partial^4 r}{partial y^4} + frac{partial^4 r}{partial z^4}+2frac{partial^4r}{partial x^2partial y^2}
+2frac{partial^4r}{partial x^2partial z^2}
+2frac{partial^4r}{partial y^2partial z^2}.
$$
