Introduction to PDE. Solving linear, semi-linear, quasilinear and fully non-linear first order equations by using the method of characteristics. Conservation laws: Weak Solutions, concept of entropy solution and Riemann problems. Examples with their applications in various fields.

Prof. Ujjwal Koley (UK) , Associate Professor at TIFR-CAM

4

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

4

Heat Equation: Introduction to the heat equation and derivation of the fundamental solution. Solution to the homogeneous problem and solution to the non-homogeneous problem by Duhamel's principle. Regularity of the solution in bounded domains and explanation of the infinite speed propagation. Heat mean value formula. Weak and strong maximum principles. Energy methods to prove the uniqueness and backward uniqueness of the solution.
