Course content
1. Computing methods for differential equations of the first order. 2. Fundamentals of differential equations, autonomous systems, the relation of a single equation to a system. 3. Local existece and uniqueness theorems for the initial value problems, the Gronwall lemma. 4. Extending the solution, complete solution, global existece and uniqueness theorems for initial value problems, differential inequalities, existence on a half-line. 5. Systems of linear differential equations (superposition, fundamental solution, the Wronskian, the Jacobi formula, variation of constants formula, general solution). 6. Linear differential equation of the n-th order. 7. Systems of linear differential equations with constant coefficients, structure of the solution. 8. Linear differential equation of the n-th order with constant coefficients.
