Description for Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations
Paperback. This excellent introduction to hyperbolic differential equations is devoted to linear equations and symmetric systems, as well as conservation laws. It includes more than 100 exercises, along with "do-it-yourself" instructions for the proofs of many theorems. Series: Universitext. Num Pages: 162 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKJ. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 156 x 9. Weight in Grams: 248.
The aim of this book is to present hyperbolic partial di?erential equations at an elementary level. In fact, the required mathematical background is only a third year university course on di?erential calculus for functions of several variables. No functional analysis knowledge is needed, nor any distribution theory (with the exception of shock waves mentioned below). k All solutions appearing in the text are piecewise classical C solutions. Beyond the simpli?cations it allows, there are several reasons for this choice: First, we believe that all main features of hyperbolic partial d- ferential equations (PDE) (well-posedness of the Cauchy problem, ?nite speed ...

Reviews for Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations
From the reviews: "The aim of the present book is to present hyperbolic partial differential equations at an elementary level. … the novice might well be used to a more discursive style. … HypPDE is a very good book … the more experienced mathematician will also find a lot of good stuff in these pages, all presented well and ...
