Suppose that the function $h:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}$ has continuous partial derivatives and satisfies the equation
\[h(x,y)=a\frac{\partial h}{\partial x}(x,y)+b\frac{\partial h}{\partial y}(x,y)\]
for some constants $a,b.$ Prove that if there is a constant $M$ such that $|h(x,y)|\le M$ for all $(x,y)$ in $\mathbb{R}^2,$ then $h$ is identically zero.

Let the set consisting of the squares of the positive integers be called $u$; thus $u$ is the set $1, 4, 9, 16 . . .$. If a certain operation on one or more members of the set always yields a member of the set, we say that the set is closed under that operation. Then $u$ is closed under:
