Goals of the Course
This course is a companion course to Mathematical Physics II. It is a standard "mathematical methods" course. Students master analytical techniques for problems that arise in physics, engineering and chemistry. This course introduces first order and second order ordinary differential equations and their solution methods. Questions of uniqueness of solutions and convergence are also discussed. Students are also introduced to Fourier series, the Fourier transform, convolution integral, Laplace transform, and the Dirac delta function. Students will find this mathematical methods course helpful in other units such as Quantum Mechanics, Analytical Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, as well as in Automotive Engineering and other engineering courses.

This course has dual aims: 1) to convey mathematical principles relevant to solving applied problems in physics, engineering and chemistry; 2) to improve students’ technical ability – i.e. ability to express intuition in mathematical terms and ability to solve problems.

Students taking Mathematical Physics I should also enroll in Mathematical Physics Tutorial I.

Course Evaluation Method and Criteria

成績評価の方法と基準【英語】
Course Evaluation Method and Criteria
For students (e.g. PhysSci) for whom the lecture course and tutorial course count separately towards the graduation requirement, the Lecture Course Grade is calculated as follows:

Attendance and class participation: 5%; Weekly Quizzes and/or Assignments: 25%; Mid-term exam: 35%; Final Exam: 35%

For students (e.g. AutoEng) for whom the tutorial course does not count towards the graduation requirement, the reported grade is calculated as follows:

Tutorial Course mark 1/3; Lecture Course mark 2/3.

The Lecture Course mark is calculated in the same way as for PhysSci students.

Necessity / Non-necessity to submit "Course Withdrawal Request Form"
If the student plans to withdraw then a formal withdrawal form must be signed by the lecturer and submitted to the Student Office by the official deadline in November.

Conditions for Course Withdrawal
A withdrawal request made after the official deadline in November will be rejected unless the circumstances are very exceptional. If Mathematical Physics I is NOT A COMPULSORY SUBJECT and the student plans never to take Mathematical Physics I in the future, then a late withdrawal request will be considered.

Criteria for "Fail (F)" & "Absent (W)" grades
The "Absent (W)" grade is reserved for students who withdraw by the deadline in November. After that day, a letter grade will be awarded based on marks earned from all assessment during the semester.

Self-directed Learning Outside Course Hours
• This course is part of your training to be a professional researcher. You are expected to revise the lecture notes, read and work through the textbook, and solve assignment problems outside lecture hours. You cannot learn physics by only attending lectures. The exams will consist of questions covering both lecture notes and assignments.

• Students must be willing to work hard if they wish to achieve a good, internationally competitive level.

Notice to Students

Plagiarism (e.g. copying solutions that you have found on the Internet) is an act of academic dishonesty. Cheating in exams (e.g. having lecture notes, assignment solutions or online references open on your computer screen during an online exam) is a serious offence. Copying other people's solutions and claiming them as your own is also an act of academic dishonesty. Nagoya University has a strict policy towards academic dishonesty:

"Acts of academic dishonesty are prohibited during exams, for reports and assignments. If acts of academic dishonesty are discovered, you may be subject to discipline, which may affect your ability to graduate on time."

The punishment for serious breaches (such as cheating in an exam or repeated plagiarism despite a warning) is the loss of all grades from all subjects during the semester and cancellation of any scholarships received.

Even if your course is difficult and it is to be expected that you'll find it hard to finish assignments, it is far better that you submit an honest effort than take the dishonest path. Remember, to be on course for a "B" you only need to score over 70% in the assignments -- and if you paid attention in the tutorials, you would have seen nearly all the problems done for you (in my subjects, at least).

There's no excuse for cheating.

Face to face lectures and tutorials are compulsory (other than in exceptional circumstances; e.g. COVID infection). However, in order to record a video of the lecture -- including student interaction with each other and with the lecturer -- the lectures will simultaneously be carried out online using MS Teams. Students are therefore requested to bring their laptop or tablet to the lecture room. Make sure it has a microphone! Bring an electrical cord. For many G30 students, English is a 2nd or even 3rd language, so video recordings are an invaluable learning aid.

Live lectures via MS Teams (face-to-face and online). Before the start of semester students should ensure that they have correctly installed MS Teams using their THERS (国立大学法人東海国立大学機構 ) email account.

NUPACE students should contact Professor John Wojdylo before the start of semester for assistance with installing Teams correctly.

All lectures will be live face-to-face and online via MS Teams. Face-to-face attendance is compulsory (barring exceptional circumstances such as COVID infection).

A lecture video will be available immediately after each lecture to help with student revision.

The lecturer will be available to answer questions via Teams chat.
