How to study for the Sept 2009 exam? (final update)

For preparation of the september exam, please see the "how to study for the 2009 exam" instruction that I provided for the May examination (left margin). There is no difference to the instruction, but of course the exam will be different!

How to study for the 2009 exam.

Please see VERY USEFUL notes on how to study for the exam in the lhs margin.

Some additional reading material (good books in which you may find some useful exercises on material related to the course):

Perko: Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems


Chicone: Ordinary Differential Equations and Applications

Final week

For the final week of term (23-27 mar) we have the following program:

TUE 23/3 9-10am final lecture
WED 24/3 10-11am final problem class (but I will not be attending)

So NO lectures on wed&thu and NO office hour on wed.

I will soon post here instuctions about "How to study for the exam", which will give you some very useful information on how to approach the material and problems presented in this course, in view of the exam.

Final problems (sheet nr 7)

The final "problem sheet" consists of exercises 2,3,5,10 from HSD chapter 11 (see also lhs margin under chapter 7 of the course notes), and question 4 of the 2008 exam. Note that the latter was probably a bit (too) hard work as an exam question (see also section 10.7 of HSD).

 

Chapter 7

Chapter 7 will follow HSD chapter 11 (applications in Biology).

Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction

Some of you have asked me for some alternative reading on Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction. I would like to suggest you consult section 8.2 of Carmen Chicone's (good!) textbook on Ordinary Differential Equations. (consult this section online in google books)
