Summary

Unveiling the Secrets of Linear PDEs and Fourier Theory

Do you crave a rigorous journey that grounds Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) in their origins and physical manifestations? This book offers a visually rich exploration of linear PDEs and initial/boundary value problems, forging a strong link between mathematical concepts and real-world phenomena.

Instead of rote memorization, you’ll be guided towards abstraction – a powerful problem-solving tool. This approach mak…

Critics Review

‘I love this bare-handed approach to PDEs. Pivato has succeeded in creating a deeply engaging introductory PDE text; confidence building hands-on work and theory are woven together in a way that appeals to the intuition. Add to that the truly reasonable price, and you have the hands down winner in the field of introductory PDE books. The next time I teach introductory PDEs, I will use Pivato’s new text.’ Kevin R. Vixie, Washington State University‘… the framework of its content is clear and firm … extensive and insightful analysis of issues regarding … different systems of coordinates … an excellent reference for anyone concerned with scientific, informational, or research subjects … The book gives the student most that one could require or even imagine.’ Contemporary Physics
