Green's functions are named after the mathematician, George Green, who first developed the concept in the 1830s. In the modern study of linear partial differential equations, Green's functions are studied largely from the point of view of fundamental solutions instead. It is an important mathematical tool that has application in many areas of theoretical physics including mechanics, electromagnetism, solid-state
physics, thermal physics, and the theory of elementary particles For the solution of Boundary value problems associated with either ordinary or partial differential equations, one requires a brief knowledge about Green's function .
