课程详情

Phenomena as diverse as the motion of the planets, the spread of a disease, and the oscillations of a suspension bridge are governed by differential equations. MATH226x is an introduction to the mathematical theory of ordinary differential equations. This course follows a modern dynamical systems approach to the subject. In particular, equations are analyzed using qualitative, numerical, and if possible, symbolic techniques.

MATH226 is essentially the edX equivalent of MA226, a one-semester course in ordinary differential equations taken by more than 500 students per year at Boston University. It is divided into three parts. MATH226.3x is the last part.

课程大纲

• how to apply the theory of linear systems to nonlinear systems near equilibrium points
• how to use nullclines to simplify phase plane analysis, and discuss systems with conserved quantities, dissipative systems, and gradient systems
• basic understanding of chaotic systems using the Lorenz system as the primary example.
