Course objectives (in Czech)

PDR jsou v jistém smyslu vyvrcholením matematické analýzy, uplatňují se tu výsledky z integrálního a diferenciálního počtu, algebry, geometrie, komplexní analýzy. Přednáška je přehledem klasických výsledků a metod o PDR, budeme se zabývat rovnicemi prvního a druhého řádu.
