ABOUT THE COURSE: Differential equations play an important role in applied mathematics. They provide the modelling tools to depict and simulate real world (physical) problems. This course is intended for all undergraduate students such as students from any BTech, BSc and MSc level courses. It will offer a detailed introduction and tools necessary to model, analyze and solve numerically the differential equations (DEs). We will cover both first order and second order ODEs & their subsequent theories.INTENDED AUDIENCE: UG students including all BTech, BSc and MSc students.PREREQUISITES: Differential calculus of one and several variables, Integral calculus, Ordinary differential equations.
Advanced Theory of Ordinary Differential Equations
Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur and NPTEL via Swayam
