I'm currently taking a symmetry analysis course. It is really interesting. I would recommend it to any math major or anyone interested in ODE's and PDE'S. I am enjoying it very much.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
is that anything like that "differential galois theory" where you look st symmetries in differential equations?
 
I almost feel sorry that ever since Emmy Noether discovered the theorem in 1918,we physicists like to take a look at symmetries related to physical phenomena (and Lagrange & Hamilton actions & functions),and not to symmetries of PDE-s... :rolleyes: :-p

Would you kindly briefly explain what this is? I'm interested in differential equations.

Thanks,
Salty

This course is symmetry of PDE's

Sorry I'm unfamiliar with "differential galois therory"
 

Thread 'Volterra equation of the second kind'

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. I...

Thread 'Visual Representation of Separation of Varables'

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...
