Correction text:

Hi Ben,
The entry is very clear!
I think one cannot use "grad" for notation of Laplacian -- "grad" means usually the gradient.
As for in the cases you use the \equiv symbol, I think that at least in mathematics the notation := were nowadays more used (when one wants to fix or define some notation).
A little typo: there is "sume" when speaking of sum of operators.
Regards,
Jussi

Comment from object owner bloftin:

agree, with grad and changed notation a little, I have also change \equiv to :=, I'll see if it sticks, it reminds me to much of internet smiley faces :=)
