授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | | Students taking Mathematical Physics I should also take this tutorial class. This course introduces first-order and second-order ordinary differential equations and their solution methods. Students will master exact and approximate analytical techniques for initial value problems that arise in physics, engineering and chemistry. Questions of existence, uniqueness and convergence will also be discussed. Fourier series follow naturally from the second-order theory and these are investigated, too. |
