Honors Differential Equations

Nautilus shell X-ray and logarithmic spiral.

An X-ray of a chambered nautilus shell shows similar properties to the logarithmic spiral which is a graph of a solution of the differential equation dr/dθ=br. (X-ray courtesy of C. C.

Course Description

This course covers the same material as Differential Equations (18.03) with more emphasis on theory. In addition, it treats mathematical aspects of ordinary differential equations such as existence theorems.

OCW Scholar Version

OCW Scholar courses are designed for self-paced study with no registration required. They are substantially more complete than typical OCW courses, blending new online content with material used in MIT classes.
