The video tutorial introduces the concept of homogeneous functions, explaining that a function is homogeneous if each term has the same degree. An example is provided to illustrate this concept. The tutorial then introduces Euler's theorem, which states that for a homogeneous function of two variables, the sum of each variable multiplied by its partial derivative equals the degree of the function times the function itself. The video concludes with a brief mention of the application of Euler's theorem and directs viewers to further illustrations.
