Goal: The main goal of this class is to learn technique to solve Ode. In particular we are interested in problems coming from physics; we will propose different methods to solve them analitically and geometrically. We will discuss one dimensional flows on the line and circle, and two dimensional flows.
Homework:r-We scheduled two HWs on Jan14 and Feb11y homework assignments; btw we will suggest some problems and we will upload solutions and comments for some of them.Mid-term: We scheduled two mid-terms on Jan28 (1 dimensional system) and Feb25 (2 dimensional system)
Final: The final exam is scheduled for Mar.18.10.
Grades:
| Homework 1 | 5% | Jan14 -> Due Jan21 |
| MT1 | 20% | Jan28 |
