MATH 461: Differential Equations

2010 Trimester 1

MATH 461 CRN 7684, 15 Points (2010 1/3)
Coordinator: A/Prof Mark McGuinness
Textbook: Bender and Orszag, Advanced Mathematical Methods for Scientists and Engineers.
Description: Much undergraduate work on differential equations is concerned with exact analytical solutions. However, differential equations arise in the course of modelling the real world, and often are not amenable to exact methods. In MATH 461, approximate methods which are powerful enough to be used on nonlinear problems are studied. Techniques allow characterization of singular solution behaviour, often necessary before solving numerically. Some background in complex variables is useful.
