Funktional-Differentialgleichungen

What it is about

You will be introduced to the theory of functional differential equations, in particular delay differential equations and further types (e.g., mixed type). At the end you will be able to understand and assess fundamental questions on existence, uniqueness, and stability of solutions.

What you will be able to do

• Foundations of the theory of functional differential equations
• Understanding of delay differential equations
• Knowledge about existence and uniqueness statements
• Assessment of stability issues
• Introduction to more complex types such as mixed equations

What the module consists of

• VorlesungConveying the contents through lectures, examples and discussion; also serves to motivate independent in-depth study

Teaching method

• VorlesungExplanation of the theory using illustrative examples and discussion to promote independent study
• TafelarbeitPresentation and elaboration of derivations and examples during the lecture
