The video focuses on the convolution theorem in the context of differential equations and Laplace transforms. The presenter explains that the Laplace transform of the convolution of two functions is equal to the product of their individual Laplace transforms. Through a step-by-step example, the video demonstrates how to find the inverse Laplace transform of a given function, utilizing known transforms such as ( sin(t) ) and ( cos(t) ). The process involves breaking down complex expressions into recognizable parts and using the convolution integral to simplify the solution. The key mathematical process emphasized is the convolution of ( 2sin(t) ) and ( cos(t) ), which results in ( tsin(t) ). The importance of understanding and applying the convolution theorem to solve differential equations is highlighted, with a note that a formal proof will be discussed in a future video.

In this part of the video, the presenter introduces the convolution theorem in the context of differential equations and Laplace transforms. They explain that the Laplace transform of the convolution of two functions, ( f(t) ) and ( g(t) ), is equal to the product of their individual Laplace transforms, ( F(s) ) and ( G(s) ). To demonstrate this concept, the presenter plans to provide an example involving the inverse Laplace transform. Specifically, they aim to find the inverse Laplace transform of a given function ( H(s) = frac{2s}{s^2 + 1} ).

In this part of the video, the instructor discusses how to rewrite and simplify the given Laplace transform expression ( frac{2s}{{(s^2 + 1)}^2} ). By breaking it into recognizable parts (frac{2}{{s^2 + 1}} cdot frac{s}{{s^2 + 1}}), the instructor identifies the inverse Laplace transforms of these parts as sine and cosine functions. Specifically, (frac{1}{{s^2 + 1}}) is recognized as the Laplace transform of ( sin(t) ), and (frac{s}{{s^2 + 1}}) as the Laplace transform of ( cos(t) ). He explains that combining these, the given expression is essentially the product of the Laplace transform of ( 2 sin(t) ) and the Laplace transform of ( cos(t) ).

In this part of the video, the speaker explains the application of the convolution theorem in the context of inverse Laplace transforms. The main points include breaking down a Laplace transform into recognizable components and using the convolution theorem to find the inverse. Specifically, the speaker identifies expressions as the Laplace transforms of `2 sine(t)` and `cosine(t)` and demonstrates how to rewrite these as products of Laplace transforms. By recognizing `F(s)` and `G(s)`, the speaker illustrates that the inverse Laplace transform of their product equals the convolution of their respective inverse Laplace transforms.

In this segment of the video, the focus is on finding the inverse Laplace transform of a given function. The inverse Laplace transform of ( frac{G(s)}{s^2 + 1} ) involves using known transforms: ( 2 sin(t) ) and ( cos(t) ). It details the process of convolving ( 2 sin(t) ) with ( cos(t) ), highlighting the convolution integral ( int_0^t 2 sin(t – tau) cos(tau) , dtau ). The narrator then simplifies this through previously explained methods, ultimately leading to ( frac{1}{2}t sin(t) ).

In this segment of the video, the narrator explains how to find the inverse Laplace transform of the given expression, 2s over (s squared plus 1 squared). By recognizing that this can be broken down into the product of two known Laplace transforms (Laplace transforms of 2 sine of t and cosine of t), the inverse Laplace transform is found to be the convolution of these functions. The result is ultimately simplified to t sine of t. The narrator emphasizes the importance of understanding the convolution theorem and notes that while its proof will be covered in a future video, this segment serves to illustrate its application in solving differential equations using Laplace transforms.
