After successful completion of the course, students are able to calculate the spectrum of operators in vector spaces, to explain and use the index notation, to calculate in higher dimensions and to categorize different solution paths for certain differential equations and to transfer these methods to examples.
1 Mathematical concepts: Tensors, metric, coordinate transformations 2 Partial Diffrenetial Equations 3 Solution methods for PDEs in Physics 4 Boundary and Eigenvalue-problems 5 Singular Differential equations 6 Special Functions 7 Generalized functions 8 Green-function techniques for solving inhomogenuous PDEs
I urge all colleagues already at this time to register for the TUWEL course; otherwise, grading will be massively delayed!
A missing TUWEL entry will delay the grading considerably!
The oral presentation is augmented with visual aids, and students are encouraged to actively participate in the lecture.

*) The grouping---if necessary due to the number of participants---is based on the grouping of the previous lecture. In case a lecture held before is cancelled or only held online, the grouping of the following lecture will be used. If there is no grouping in the latter, then the grouping of the methods lecture in that week will be retained.
Please follow, in particular, the grouping as explained @ https://tiss.tuwien.ac.at/course/courseDetails.xhtml?dswid=3604&dsrid=712&courseNr=134120&semester=2021W

*) If you want to buy course notes (@ EUR 15): there will be a possibility to buy these notes in front of the lecture hall before the lectureand please have EUR 15 ready without needing exchange money. Here are the dates:
Tue, 5.10., 11.45 Uhr
Thu, 7.10., 11.45 Uhr
Tue, 12.10., 11.45 Uhr
Thu, 14.10., 11.45 Uhr
There are two written examinations; together with the practice tests (grouping like practice tests);
Fr., den 19.11.2021 von 16:00 - 18:00 (zugleich mit Übungen)
and
Fr., 21.01.2022 from 13:00 - 15:00 (same as Übungen)
Please register in advance for the course in TUWEL.
A maximum of 100 points can be achieved in each of these two tests.
Another "substitute test" will take place in the coming summer semester. The latter can be attended in order to improve a negative assessment (prerequisite: at least one positive test during the semester). The two best grades count.
Test dates:
Test 1 ("multiple choice"): the same date as the lecture exercises; see above; Content: unless otherwise stated in the lecture Linear algebra incl. tensors.
Test 2: the same date as the lecture exercises; see above; Content: if not otherwise stated in the lecture distributions, Green's functions until special functions of mathematical physics.
Replacement test:
Fr. 15:00 - 17:00 11.03.2022 FH Hörsaal 6 - TPH schriftlich (Präsenz) . Please send me an email if you want to attend.
The replacement test replaces the worst of the two previous tests. Participation only for candidates who have received a negative assessment on the LVA.
The subject area of the retest is the entire content of the LVA.
Grading scheme: Per test up to 100 "raw" points can be obtained.
The "standardisation" of these "raw" points T1 and T2 is carried out according to the following formula:
Normalized points = (T1 + T2 - 40) * 200 / 160
For a positive assessment, at least 21 standardised points must have been achieved per test.
A total of at least 71 standardized points must have been achieved in both tests.
71-100 standardized points: sufficient
101-130 standardized points: satisfactory
131-165 standardized points: good
166-200 standardized points: very good
