    The truly interesting question is whether the different lines are orthogonal according to the Sturm-Liouville theory, and what partial differential equation they are the solution of. I suspect you could get a Nobel prize for finding this out. Once you've done that, the fact that they change with time becomes easy to deal with thanks to perturbation theory.
