This is an exercise course corresponding to the lecture course Applied Mathematics for Physicists and Scientists (IIZUB.M213).
Students will be able to deepen their understanding by solving problems related to the lecture course.
At the end of this course, students will be able to solve elementary problems of Fourier transform, special functions, and partial differential equations.
Fourier transform, gamma function, Legendre functions, Bessel functions, Hermite functions, Lagerre functions, partial differential equations, Green functions, Dirichlet problems, Laplace transform
✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
In every class students will be given some problems and solve them.
Solutions will be explained in the latter half of the class.
