Errata for the 2019-20' MA20223 materials

Typed notes

  • The Corollary 8.4 on convex sets should specify that “if every straight line (that includes a point on the interior of Ω) intersects Ω at two points at most”.
  • There were some typos in the derivation of the wave equation in Chap. 10. It should instead look like this:

  • Chap. 12 and the Definition 12.8 of the even extension on p.56 should read x[0,L] instead of x[0,π]
  • Example 15.4 should read 0<x<π instead of 0<x<2. (Courtesy DH)
  • Eqn (16.7) should have λ2 instead of λ on the equation for G. (Courtesy DH)
  • Theorem 18.3 should read the initial conditions of u(x,0)=f(x) and ut(x,0)=g(x). (Courtesy RA)

Problem sets

  • PS5: Q1 should define the thermal conductivity as k not kappa.

Solutions

  • PS3: Bottom of the first page ϕ should be ϕ
  • PS3: Index notation needs to be removed from the main solutions in 19-20' delivery since the topic has been moved to the Appendix. Students are still free to use the technique if they learn it (as noted in lectures).
  • PS4 Q4 dx and dy transposed

Lectures

  • Correction to lectures 16 when I wrote “Is exp(cosx) periodic? (No)”. Oops. It is periodic. Note that exp(f(x+L))=exp(f(x)).
