In this lecture, we study maximum principle for heat equation which states that the maximum and the minimum of the solution to the initial-boundary value problem for heat equation lies on the parabolic boundary of the domain. We also look at some applications including uniqueness and the convergence of the series obtained in the separation of variables method.
