Ordinary Differential Equations and Dynamical Systemsby Gerald Teschl - Universitaet Wien
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.
