Advanced Methods in Mathematical Analysis
FSI-SDR-AAcad. year: 2024/2025
The course yields overview of modern methods for solving differential equations based on functional analysis. It deals with the following topics: Survey of spaces of functions with integrable derivatives.
Linear elliptic equations: the weak and variational formulation of boundary value problems, existence and uniqueness of the solution, approximate solutions and their convergence.
Characteristics of the nonlinear problems. Weak and variational formulation of the nonlinear coercive stationary problems, existence of the solution. Application to the selected nonlinear equations of mathematical physics.
Introduction to stochastic differential equations.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Examination has two parts: The practical part tests the ability of mutual conversion of the weak, variational and classical formulation of a particular nonlinear boundary value problem and analysis of its generalized solution. Theoretical part includes 4 questions related to the subject-matter presented at the lectures.
Absence has to be made up by self-study.
Aims
Students will be made familiar with the generalized formulations (weak and variational) of the boundary value problems for partial and ordinary differential equations and construction of approximate solutions used for numerical computing.
Students will obtain ideas of stochastic integral and stochastic differential equations.
