Laplace equation: Fundamental solution, mean-value property, strong maximum principle. Introduction to Sobolev spaces, notion of weak derivatives. Poisson equation: Notion of weak solution, Lax-Milgram Lemma, existence and uniqueness of the weak solution for Dirichlet as well as Neumann problems. |
Joseph K.T., Former Professor, TIFR-Centre for Applicable Mathematics, Bengaluru |
4 |
Wave equation:Geometrical and symmetry properties of the wave operator, properties of the fundamental solution, the well-posedness and properties of the solution such as , energy conservation, loss of regularity in the solution, finite speed of propagation and Huygen's principle. Second order linear hyperbolic equations with variable coefficients: Existence, uniqueness of the solution and its continuous dependence on the data. Regularity results and the finite speed of propagation property. |
Venky Krishnan, TIFR-Centre for Applicable Mathematics, Bengaluru |
