Course description and aims

We discuss the boundary value problem for the elliptic partial differential equations such as the Poisson equation.
Basic and important theorems such as existence of solutions, regularity, and the maximum value principle are introduced.
This course is continuous with Advanced courses in Analysis B.

Student learning outcomes

Students are expected to understand the existence, uniqueness and fundamental properties of solutions of elliptic partial differential equations.

Keywords
