Partial Differential Equations

This course will give an introduction to partial differential equations.

Organisational Details

Lectures

Lectures will be on:

• Monday at 10:15-11:45  in Hörsaal IV and
• Wednesday at 10:15-11:45  in tba.

Questions/Forum

We will use the CMS-forum, there you can ask questions and share your files and notes with each other.

Also you can just write me an e-mail at "my-lastname"@math.uni-sb.de or just pass by my office in room 3.03 in building E2 4.

Exercise

Exercise sheets will be posted on a weekly basis. The solutions should be submitted electronically per CMS each week and can be handed in as group of up to 3 students. Each week there will be tutorials where the exercise sheets will be discussed together with some presence exercises.

Admission to the exam requires regular and active participation in the tutorials and the successful completion of the exercise sheets. The exact requirements will be defined in the first lecture and be posted here.

The rooms and time slots for the tutorials will be announced as soon as possible.

Examination

Depending on the number of participants there will be either a written or an oral examination at the end of the semester. There is a requirement for the admission to the exam (see exercise).

Prerequisites

You should have completed Analysis 1-3 and Linear Algebra 1-2 or equivalent before taking this course.
