= Classification of second order partial differential equations into elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic
One major application of this classification is that different <boundary conditions> are suitable for different types of <partial differential equations> as explained at: <which boundary conditions lead to existence and uniqueness of a second order PDE>.
