A good textbook in Differential Equations for pure mathematicians

AI Thread Summary
A physics major seeking to double major in math is looking for recommendations on a differential equations textbook suited for pure math students. The focus is on finding a book that enhances intuition for proofs and includes numerous solutions. Suggestions include "Ordinary Differential Equations" by Arnold as the top choice, along with other recommended texts such as "Differential Equations" by Ross and "Lectures on Differential Equations." For beginners, "Differential Equations" by Braun is highly recommended. Additionally, the student is utilizing MIT's Herb Gross video lectures as a helpful resource.

Hi I am a physics major and I am trying to double major in math,I will be taking a differential equations course for pure math students this semester. I need advice on a good textbook in Differential Equations for pure mathematicians that will build up a great intuition for proofs and will have a lot of solutions(if possible).
Also any websites would be helpful.
I am watching the MIT Herb Gross videos and find them quite helpful.
Thanks in advance

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
