Contents
- Elliptic partial differential equations
- variational formulation
- function spaces
- Regularity of solutions in Sobolev and Besov spaces
Qualification Goals
Students will
- Recognize the relevance of regularity theory to practical problems, especially to the numerical treatment of partial differential equations, and acquire knowledge of the basic principles of regularity estimation
- learn how methods from functional analysis, numerics, and approximation theory work together
- re-evaluate knowledge from basic and advanced modules
- recognize the relations of regularity theory to other areas of mathematics and to other sciences
- practice mathematical working methods (developing mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training the ability to abstract, reasoning)
- improve their oral communication skills in exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and in discussion
