    Description
    This course introduces linear partial differential equations and boundary and initial value problems with particular emphasis on the wave equation, the heat equation, and the Laplace equation. The techniques of separation of variables, eigenfunction expansions, and the method of characteristics for nonlinear equations are also studied. Mathematics Department
