Course/Module description:
The course will be concerned with the general theory of ordinary differential equations (existence, uniqueness, domain of definition, dependence on initial conditions, linear equations), with first order partial differential equations and with the prototypes of partial differential equations of second order.
More topics will be discussed as time allows.
