You are to prepare a 30-45 minute presentation on one of these topics. The presentations can be done in groups up to two persons. 

 

Please notify me by 29 of June which topic you would like, either via email or during the lectures. The topics will be distributed on a first come first serve basis. 

 

The presentations can be done either on the blackboard or by preparing lecture slides and using a projector. In either case, please send the lecture notes of your talk to me and Dan in advance of your presentation so that you can get feedback on them. The presentations are planned to be held in the period 11-15 of July.

 

It is compulsory to give presentation and attend all the other presentations in order to qualify for the exam.

Some students have asked regarding a reference for the basic theory of ordinary differential equations. What is needed for this course is essentially covered in sections 2.1-2.4, of "Advanced Engineering Mathematics, sixth edition", by Kreyszig.

Some students have asked regarding a reference for the basic theory of ordinary differential equations. What is needed for this course is essentially covered in sections 2.1-2.4, of "Advanced Engineering Mathematics, sixth edition", by Kreyszig. You could also have a look at section 2.7 of the same book where they consider the Euler equation, which appeared in Example 1.3 of my lecture notes.
