Course description and aims

The main subject of this course is overdetermined problems for elliptic partial differential equations.
We learn its variational structure, a characterization by quadrature identity for harmonic functions, and a dynamical approach.
This course is following Advanced courses in Analysis C.

Student learning outcomes

Understanding of the basic theory of overdetermined problems for elliptic partial differential equations

Keywords

elliptic partial differential equations, overdetermined problems, variational methods, analytic semigroups

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

This is a standard lecture course. Occasionally I will give problems for reports.

Course schedule/Required learning

  Course schedule Required learning
Class 1 Overdetermined problems Details will be provided during each class session.
Class 2 Variational method and existence theorem 1 Details will be provided during each class session.
Class 3 Variational method and existence theorem 2 Details will be provided during each class session.
Class 4 Uniqueness theorem Details will be provided during each class session.
Class 5 Duality theorem (characterization by quadrature identities) Details will be provided during each class session.

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
