An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations

Partial differential equations are fundamental to the modeling of natural phenomena; they arise in every field of science. Consequently, the desire to understand the solutions of these equations has always had a prominent place in the efforts of mathematicians; it has inspired such diverse fields as complex function theory, functional analysis, and algebraic topology. This book, meant for a beginning graduate student audience, provides a thorough introduction to partial differential equations. It will bring the student up to the level of beginning research in the field.
