Course description and aims

This course gives a lecture on the theory of semigroups for linear operators and its application to partial differential equations. Theory of semigroups for linear operators are firstly explained; then as an application of the semigroup theory, partial differential equations of evolution type is considered. This course will be completed with "Advanced topics in Analysis F" in the next quarter.

The aim of this course is to learn some aspects of functional analytic method for partial differential equations through applications of the semigroup theory.

Student learning outcomes

・To understand theory of semigroups for linear operators.
・To understand applications of the semigroup theory to partial differential equations.

Keywords

linear operator, semigroup, resolvent, spectrum, evolution equation, partial differential equation
