Course Synopsis
|
This course we focused on ordinary differential equations. We describe the main ideas to solve first and second order differential equations and systems of linear equations. We discussed the applications of these differential equations. We use power series methods to solve variable coefficients second order linear equations. We also provided a brief introduction to the eigenvalue problems.
