Ordinary Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems
by Gerald Teschl
Publisher: Universitaet Wien 2009
Number of pages: 297
Description:
This book provides an introduction to ordinary differential equations and dynamical systems. We start with some simple examples of explicitly solvable equations. Then we prove the fundamental results concerning the initial value problem: existence, uniqueness, extensibility, dependence on initial conditions. Furthermore we consider linear equations, the Floquet theorem, and the autonomous linear flow.
