Advanced Course on Partial Differential Equations - II

Indian Institute of Science Bangalore and NPTEL via Swayam

Overview

ABOUT THE COURSE:This is a continuation of our earlier NPTEL course “Advanced Course on Partial Differential Equations – I”. This course is also for 8 weeks consisting of 20 one hour lecture hours. Half of the course (roughly 10 hours) is devoted to various aspects of elliptic equations and the rest deals with evolution equations (using the semi-groups as the tool).INTENDED AUDIENCE: Mathematics, Science and Engineering.PREREQUISITES: Measure and , Integration; Functional Analysis, including Semi-group theory. Basic PDE. NPTEL Course on “Advanced Course on Partial Differential Equations – I”
