Main subjects of this course are nonlinear functional analysis and its application to elliptic partial differential equations.
We study the topological degree, the implicit function theorem, and the bifurcation theory.
This course is following Advanced topics in Analysis E1.
Understanding of the basic theory of nonlinear functional analysis including the topological degree, the implicit function theorem and the bifurcation theory
elliptic partial differential equations, functional analysis, topological degree, implicit function theorem, bifurcation theory
