Microcourse

on

Computer-aid for study of differential and difference equations

Seventh Colloquium on the Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations
(Szeged, Hungary, July 14-18, 2003).


 
Date: July 18 (Friday) 2003, 14.00 – 18.00

Place: Computer room (air-conditioned!) at Dept. Medical Informatics
 
Conditions: Some practice with computers is required. The capacity of the computer room is restricted. 
Maximal number if participant is 20 and 16 
of them can work individually.

Program: During the microcourse the participants will learn the very basic tools of visualization and 
investigation of ordinary differential and difference equations in Mathematica with the help of 
well-prepared modeling schemes. 
Some topics concerned:
Elements of computer visualization
Elementary steps of the investigation of ODE’s: vectorfields, equilibria, solution, plotting solutions
and trajectories, animations
Advanced methods: phasemap experiments, Liapunov method
 
The participants will receive a CD-ROM that contains the projects used on this course and the complete 
system of handouts and projects of the intensive courses Computer-aided mathematical modeling (for Ph.D. 
students at University of Szeged) and Computer Algebra I-II (for computational engineering students at
 Technische Fachhochschule Berlin)
