Description:
COURSE AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: This course gives an introduction to modern analysis. First the Sobolev spaces on an interval are defined. Developed theory is then applied to theoretical and numerical analysis of boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations, the Sturm-Liouville problem and the obstacle problem. Examples and simulation of real world problems.

COURSE DESCRIPTION AND SYLLABUS:
1. Weak derivative, Sobolev spaces on an interval. Ulaganja prostora Soboljeva.
2. The Poincare inequality, subspaces oft he Sobolev spaces.
3. Hilbert spaces, the theorem of Stampacchia, the Lax-Milgramova lemma.
4. Boundary value problems for ordinary differential , variational equations.
5. Regularity of weak solutions, classical solutions.
6. Finite element method for boundary value problems.
7. Unilateral boundary value problems, variational inequalities.
8. Minimization of quadratic functionals, regularity of solutions of unilateral boundary value problems.
9. Finite element method for unilateral boundary value problems.
