Dear Learners,
As we are aware that many real life problems could be modelled into a differential equation, this course helps you to explore various methods of solving the differential equations and the characteristic properties of such solutions. At the end of the course one would gain
Expertise in applying various methods to obtain non-trivial solutions to second order linear complete and reduced differential equations.
Learner would be able to understand nature, Qualitative properties and Essential characterization of the solution of reduced second order linear differential equation by direct analysis of its equation. Learn the procedure to obtaining power series solution to first and second order ordinary differential equation.
A learner would gain proficiency in solving Gauss Hyper geometric equation, homogeneous differential equation for large values of the independent variable. Familiarize some special functions of Mathematical Physics and their properties. Acquaintance to system to first order linear differential equation, solution to homogeneous linear system with constant coefficients, Isoperimetric problems and method of successive approximation.
