​Das essential gibt Bachelor- und Masterstudierenden der Natur- und Ingenieurwissenschaften eine kompakte Einführung in die Mathematik der partiellen Differentialgleichungen. Im Fokus stehen dabei explizite Lösungsmethoden für die drei wichtigsten Grundtypen linearer partieller Differentialgleichungen: Laplacegleichung, Wärmeleitungsgleichung und Wellengleichung. Diese werden aus dem jeweiligen physikalischen Kontext motiviert. Es werden Lösungsverfahren für eine Reihe von typischen Anfangs- und Randwertaufgaben vorgestellt. Die diesen zugrundeliegenden analytischen...

Based on a series of lectures given by I. M. Gelfand at Moscow State University, this book actually goes considerably beyond the material presented in the lectures. The aim is to give a treatment of the elements of the calculus of variations in a form both easily understandable and sufficiently modern. Considerable attention is devoted to physical applications of variational methods, e.g., canonical equations, variational principles of mechanics, and conservation laws.
The reader who merely wishes to become familiar with the most basic concepts and methods of the calculus of variations...

"This is a very good book ... with many well-chosen examples and illustrations." "American Mathematical Monthly
"This highly regarded text presents a self-contained introduction to some important aspects of modern qualitative theory for ordinary differential equations. It is accessible to any student of physical sciences, mathematics or engineering who has a good knowledge of calculus and of the elements of linear algebra. In addition, algebraic results are stated as needed; the less familiar ones are proved either in the text or in appendixes.
The topics covered in the first three...

If you are looking for a quick nuts-and-bolts overview, turn to Schaum's Easy Outlines

Schaum's Easy Outline of Differential Equations is a pared-down, simplified, and tightly focused review of the topic. With an emphasis on clarity and brevity, it features a streamlined and updated format and the absolute essence of the subject, presented in a concise and readily understandable form. Graphic elements such as sidebars, reader-alert icons, and boxed highlights stress selected points from the text, illuminate keys to learning, and give you quick pointers to the...
