I am finding some topics a bit obscurely explained.
I have attached the curriculum/study guide we are using, and was hoping someone could suggest books which cover these bases.

Particularly finding week 8 a bit difficult at the moment, especially stability (surely just more robust revision and studying is required) but i haven't been successful in finding similar topics covered in textbooks.

I am using Kreyzig advanced engineering mathematics and also PV Oneil's advanced eng mathematics.

Any help is appreciated!

thanks, I had a look at your notes prior as well.

Is there any way to download them?

No, it is setup so you can't.
 
There is the following linear Volterra equation of the second kind $$ y(x)+\int_{0}^{x} K(x-s) y(s)\,{\rm d}s = 1 $$ with kernel $$ K(x-s) = 1 - 4 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{1}{\lambda_n^2} e^{-\beta \lambda_n^2 (x-s)} $$ where $y(0)=1$, $\beta>0$ and $\lambda_n$ is the $n$-th positive root of the equation $J_0(x)=0$ (here $n$ is a natural number that numbers these positive roots in the order of increasing their values), $J_0(x)$ is the Bessel function of the first kind of zero order.

Are there any good visualization tutorials, written or video, that show graphically how separation of variables works? I particularly have the time-independent Schrodinger Equation in mind. There are hundreds of demonstrations out there which essentially distill to copies of one another. However I am trying to visualize in my mind how this process looks graphically - for example plotting t on one axis and x on the other for f(x,t). I have seen other good visual representations of...
