Lectures on Cauchy Problem
by Sigeru Mizohata
Publisher: Tata Institute of Fundamental Research 1965
Number of pages: 191
Description:
A Cauchy problem in mathematics asks for the solution of a partial differential equation that satisfies certain conditions which are given on a hypersurface in the domain. Cauchy problems are an extension of initial value problems and are to be contrasted with boundary value problems.
