Course description and aims
This is a lecture of mathematics (differential equations, special functions and vector analysis, etc. ) that is indispensable for those who study chemistry.
The goal is to fully understand the roles of mathematics in several topics in chemistry such as boundary problems of Schrodinger equation, selection rules, and optical phenomena, as well as the physical meanings.
Student learning outcomes
The goal is to understand the meaning of each topics on mathematics and to fully put them to use as tools for study of chemistry.
Keywords
