The course, apart from the instruction in the classical quartet of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) (transport, Laplace, heat and wave) in several space variables, aims, first, to highlight the modern, analytic approach to the theory of PDEs and the reasons that suggest it, and, second, to provide an introduction to nonlinear PDEs, especially concerning first-order and hyperbolic equations. The skills and competences the students will acquire concern, on the one hand, the paradigmatic transition from the resolution of a problem to the theoretical analysis of its properties and the investigation of its structural foundation, and, on the other hand, the recognition of the essential difference between linear and nonlinear problems and the limitations of the method of approximation of a nonlinear problem by linear problems. |
