| Course Objectives | Partial differential equations (PDEs) arise in connection with various physical and geometrical problems when the functions involved depend on two or more independent variables, usually on time t and on one or several space variables. In this course some of the most important PDEs occuring in physical and engineering applications are considered. Methods for solving initial and boundary value problems for PDEs are developed. |
