Any other recommendations for rigorous DE and PDE books?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a study plan that includes working through Rudin's "Real and Complex Analysis," followed by functional analysis, and then delving into differential equations (DEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs). Recommendations for DEs include Arnold's text, noted for its geometric approach, while Evans is suggested for PDEs, recognized as a strong graduate-level resource. Kreyszig's "Advanced Engineering Mathematics" is also mentioned as a valuable resource for both ODE and PDE topics. Overall, Arnold and Evans are highly regarded, with no alternative texts deemed superior in this context.

My plan is to work thru Rudin's Real and Complex Analysis, and then functional analysis, and then move on to DEs/PDEs.

Right now its looking like Arnold for DEs, and Evans for PDEs.

Any other recommendations?
thanks

Kreyszig - Advanced Engineering Mathematics 9ed , plenty of ODE and PDE stuff in there for you.
 
Redrzewki that sounds like the ideal combo. Arnold is very geometric, but it is a beauty. And Evans is considered a very good grad PDE book.
 
You cannot go wrong with Arnold and Evans. I don't know any better books.
 

Thread '"WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY?" A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
