The course diary on TMA372/MAN660, Fall 2003


2003-12-19:
There will be a 4 hours exam, 2003-12-20 in V-house, 8.45-12.45.
This is only for student that had "collisions" in the ordinary exams date: 2003-12-16.
2003-11-25:
The final exam will contain a theory question from the following list:

Theorem 5.3; The interpolation error (proof either as in the CDE or in the Lecture Notes).

Equivalences: Show (in the 1D case) that the boundary value problem for the stationary heat equation is equivalent to a corresponding variational formulation and a minimization problem (page 178-182 CDE).

Theorem 8.1; a priori error estimate for the 2 point boundary value problems, (the complete proof is given in Theorems 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 in Lecture Notes).

Theorem 8.2; a posteriori error estimate for the 2 point boundary value problems, (the proof is given through the arguments leading to Theorem 8.4 in the Lecture Notes).

Lemma 9.1; stability estimates for the dual of a general initial value problem, (a detailrd proof can be found "inside the proof of Theorem 9.2" in the Lecture Notes).

Theorem 9.2; a posteriori error estimates for cG(1), for a general initial value problem.

Theorem 9.4; a priori error estimates for dG(0), for a general initial value problem, (a detailed proof can be found in Lecture Notes).

Theorem 21.1; the Lax-Milgram Theorem.

Theorem 15.4; a posteriori error estimates for the Poisson's equation.

Lemma 16.1; Stability estimates for the heat equation.


2003-11-23:
All assignments should be reported in paper format, and handed in to either of us (Fredrik or Mohammad) or left in the box outside my office.
No electronical communication will be accepted.
2003-11-19:
We have an extra exercise in PDE on Friday 2003-11-21, 14.15-16.00, in EL 42.
2003-11-16:
In order to give the students more time to prepare for the exam:
we will not have Lecture/Exercise on Friday 2003-12-12.
The material for this date is scheduled within the preceding Lectures/Exercises.

2003-11-07:
This years versions of Assignments 1A and 1B are now available.
Please make sure that you have the latest versions to work with.

Vi har bokat in ett extra tillfälle nu i lv1 för er, teknologer på Elektro, i kursen Partiella differentalekvationer TM. Detta äger rum på fredagen den 31/10, kl 13-17 i MD7, Matematiskt centrum. Med vänliga hälsningar: Elisabeth
