• A handout on integration and solutions to ordinary
differential equations*
• A handout on a recursive integral with Laguerre
polynomials*
• A handout on the uses of a generating function*
• A
handout on n-dimensional generalization of
Bessel functions*
• A handout on integral equations*
• A
handout on integral transforms*
• A handout
on normalizing Hermite polynomials*
• A handout
on systems of nonlinear partial differential equations, as
in the predator-prey model*
• A handout on applying
differential equations to rocketry*
• Some sample quizzes*
• The first mid-term exam* (and its solution*)
• The second mid-term exam* (and its solution*)
Both mid-term exams have an in-class and a take-home component. After having done as much as possible in-class (in 1 hour), the students complete and correct their work over the next couple of days, at 2/3 of credit. That is, a proposed take-home solution (or part thereof) supersedes the in-class attempt. However, as take-home effort only carries 2/3 of the credit, students should rework only those (parts of) problems where they can successfully solve at least 1.5 times more than they did in-class.
• The final exam*, take-home and comprehensive.
