Contents
- Oscillatory integrals
- Fourier integral operators and pseudo-differential operators in Euclidean space
- Pseudo-differential operators on manifolds and their spectral theory, Sobolev spaces
- Hamilton-Jacobi theory, symplectic geometry, Lagrangian submanifolds
- Global theory of Fourier integral operators on manifolds
Qualification Goals
The students shall
- to get to know and use the theory of Fourier integral operators as a central area of analysis and be introduced to questions of current research,
- Apply knowledge from functional analysis, Fourier and distribution theory to the modern theory of partial differential equations,
- practice mathematical working methods (development of mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training of the ability to abstract, proof techniques),
- improve their oral communication skills in the exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during discussion.
Prerequisites
Translation is missing. Here is the German original:
Keine. Empfohlen werden die Kompetenzen, die in den Basis- und Aufbaumodulen Analysis, sowie in den Vertiefungsmodulen Funktionalanalysis und Partielle Differentialgleichungen vermittelt werden.
Applicability
Module imported from M.Sc. Mathematics.
It can be attended at FB12 in study program(s)
