دانلود کتاب Theory of Ordinary Differential Equations

This book is written for second- and third-year honours students, and indeed for any mathematically-minded person who has had a first elementary course on differential equations and wishes to extend his knowledge. The main requirement on the reader is that he should possess a thorough knowledge of real and complex analysis up to the usual second-year level of an honours degree course. After the basic theory in the first two chapters, the remaining three chapters contain topics which, while fully dealt with in advanced books, are not normally given a connected or completely rigorous account at this level. It is hoped therefore that the book will prepare the reader to continue his studies, if he so desires, in more comprehensive and advanced works, and suggestions for further reading are made in the bibliography.S TitleList of Publications of The New University Mathematics SeriesTHEORY OF ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONSCOPYRIGHT © M.
