In differential geometry, the concept of the Laplace operator, often denoted as \(\Delta\) or \(\nabla^2\), is a generalization of the Laplacian from classical analysis to manifolds. It plays a significant role in understanding the geometric and analytical properties of functions defined on a manifold.
