Functional Analysis WS 2015/2016
Announcement
Students who wish to see their results from the first exam can do so next monday, Februrary 29th, from 2:00-3:00 in room 2.040.
Synopsis
The course covers basic functional analytic methods and their application to partial differential equations such as
- Banach spaces, Hahn-Banach Theorem, Banach-Steinhaus theorem, weak convergence
- Lebesgue- and Sobolev-spaces
- Hilbert spaces, Lax-Milgram theorem, spectral theory
- elliptic PDEs
Lecture
- Wednesday, 10-12, We10/kleiner Hörsaal
- Friday, 8-10, We10/kleiner Hörsaal
Exercises
In order to be admitted to the exam you have to achieve at least 50% of the cumulative points in the exercises.
There are four exercise groups.
