About

About the course

Course content

The course is given every second year if a sufficient number of students sign up. The course is given next time Fall 2011.
The first part of the course is devoted to general techniques for solving ordinary differential equations, like Runge-Kutta and linear multistep methods. Then modern numerical methods for special applications are discussed, for instance differential equations with conservation laws or other underlying geometric structures. The last part of the course will treat time integration of partial differential equations. Modern schemes based on splitting and exponentials will be presented and analyzed.
