| Course Objectives | The course is designed to present other aspects of ordinary differential equations to the student who has so far seen the basic solution techniques. The emphasis is on existence-uniqueness and related questions; initial value, boundary value and eigenvalue problems are introduced within that concept. Examples and problems aim to clarify the theory. |
| Course Learning Outcomes |
The students who succeeded in this course;
|
| Course Content | First-order ordinary differential equations, the Existence and Uniqueness Theorem, systems and higher-order ordinary differential equations, linear differential equations, boundary value problems and eigenvalue problems, oscillation and comparison theorems. |
