Editorial Review Product Description The book is organized into two main sections and a set of appendices. Part I addresses steady-state boundary value problems, starting with two-point boundary value problems in one dimension, followed by coverage of elliptic problems in two and three dimensions. It concludes with a chapter on iterative methods for large sparse linear systems that emphasizes systems arising from difference approximations. Part II addresses time-dependent problems, starting with the initial value problem for ODEs, moving on to initial boundary value problems for parabolic and hyperbolic PDEs, and concluding with a chapter on mixed equations combining features of ODEs, parabolic equations, and hyperbolic equations. The appendices cover concepts pertinent to Parts I and II. Exercises and student projects, developed in conjunction with this book, are available on the book s webpage along with numerous MATLAB m-files. Readers will gain an understanding of the essential ideas that underlie the development, analysis, and practical use of finite difference methods as well as the key concepts of stability theory, their relation to one another, and their practical implications. The author provides a foundation from which students can approach more advanced topics and further explore the theory and/or use of finite difference methods according to their interests and needs.

Partial Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems
Initial impressions
A clear introduction to PDEs, Fourier series The subjects include a small bit on characteristics forfirst-order equations, a chapter on trigonometric series, PDEs inrectangular, polar, and spherical systems and associated eigenfunctionexpansions, Sturm-Liouville theory, the fourier transform, Laplace/Hankeltransforms for PDEs, grid-type numerical methods, sampling & discreteFourier analysis, and quantum mechanics (the Schrödinger equation). Thisbook is definitely great for applied mathematicians, physicists, orengineers whoreally need a solid introduction to the topic, written bysomeone who knows all the details.Any treatment in "mathematicalphysics" courses on PDEs will fall short of this book's content. Ofparticular importance are the inclusion of special sections for Besselfunctions, Legendre polynomials, associated Legendre functions, sphericalharmonics, etc.All the details of solution and many exercises areincluded. The most interesting parts of the book are towards the end,with the Sampling Theorem and discrete Fourier transform; and the proof ofHeisenberg's uncertainty principle. This book is also useful for moretheoretical mathematicians or mathematical physicists who need anintroduction to PDEs before taking a more difficult course on generaltheory. In short, I think that even though this book is of great utilityto non-mathematicians, it is proper to learn these concepts and techniquesin a proper math setting where care is taken.This text is a solidfoundation for confident application and a springboard towards moreadvanced subjects. ...

elem diff e-q's
Organized very well The book is very straight-forward in its explanations.However, the exposition is very limited.That means the reader will have to work out a lot of the details. As a teacher, the book works for me.I can furnish, in class, all of the details that are lacking - that's what they pay me for. For self study, I would not recommend this book because of the lacking details.I would have to go with the great book by Tenenbaum and Pollard for those that want to self study this subject. All in all, I really like the book's structure - each section has exactly one point to make, and then exercises to test the one topic in that section.Also, every other chapter has a collection of "miscellaneous problems" that I pull from for the tests.The miscellaneous problems are great, because I can tell my students that those are the problems I am going to use on their tests (a subset at least).That gets the students to work all of those problems (great motivation). I would give this book 5 stars if an instructor came with the book.Otherwise, it is a good book that leaves many of the simple and intricate details to the reader.
my favourite ODEs text!
Elementary Differential Equations I did find the most well-written sections to be the application of second-order differential equations (applied to spring oscillations etc.)However, as far as getting a bang for your buck, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Morris Tennenbaum and Harry Polland's Ordinary Differential Equations Dover edition (cheaper, and MUCH MORE effective.Trust me).
I second that! |

Editorial Review Product Description This self-contained text offers an elementary introduction to partial differential equations (pdes), primarily focusing on linear equations, but also providing some perspective on nonlinear equations. The classical treatment is mathematically rigorous with a generally theoretical layout, though indications to some of the physical origins of pdes are made throughout in references to potential theory, similarity solutions for the porous medium equation, generalized Riemann problems, and others. The material begins with a focus on the Cauchy–Kowalewski theorem, discussing the notion of characteristic surfaces to classify pdes. Next, the Laplace equation and connected elliptic theory are treated, as well as integral equations and solutions to eigenvalue problems. The heat equation and related parabolic theory are then presented, followed by the wave equation in its basic aspects. An introduction to conservation laws, the uniqueness theorem, viscosity solutions, ill-posed problems, and nonlinear equations of first order round out the key subject matter. Large parts of this revised second edition have been streamlined and rewritten to incorporate years of classroom feedback, correct errors, and improve clarity. Most of the necessary background material has been incorporated into the complements and certain nonessential topics have been given reduced attention (noticeably, numerical methods) to improve the flow of presentation. The exposition is replete with examples, problems and solutions that complement the material to enhance understanding and solidify comprehension. The only prerequisites are advanced differential calculus and some basic Lp theory. The work can serve as a text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in mathematics, physics, engineering, and the natural sciences, as well as an excellent reference for applied mathematicians and mathematical physicists. From Reviews of the First Edition: "The author's intent is to present an elementary introduction to pdes... In contrast to other elementary textbooks on pdes...much more material is presented on the three basic equations: Laplace's equation, the heat and wave equations...The presentation is clear and well organized...The text is complemented by numerous exercises and hints to proofs." –Mathematical Reviews "This is a well-written, self-contained, elementary introduction to linear, partial differential equations." –ZentrallblattMATH "This book certainly can be recommended as an introduction to PDEs in mathematical faculties and technical universities." –Applications of Mathematics |
