Course description and aims

The main topic of this course is nonlinear differential equation. Other topics cover existence and uniqueness of initial value problem, continuous dependence on parameters and theory of finite dimensional dynamical system. This course is a continuation of Differential Equations I.


Differential equations are fundamental notions appearing in all fields of mathematics. Space of solutions have algebraic structure, existence theorems of solutions give various geometric and analytic objects of great interests. This course is an entry to these paths.

Student learning outcomes

The main topic of this course is a basic theory and its applications of ordinary differential equations of one unknown variable. Ordinary differential equations describe various natural phenomena and physical laws, thus, method of solving equations and its theory are important mathematically as well as for applications. Method of solving ordinary differential equation and theory for analyzing qualitative properties of solutions are to be discussed. Applications to science and engineering will be also discussed.
