Learning Outcomes

After completion of the course the student is mastering the foundations of the functional analysis the main results and is capable of deducing them from the definitions. The student can compute the generalized derivatives and apply them for solving partial differential equations. The student can explain different type of Sobolev spaces and knows their importance.

Content

4. Sobolev spaces     

Instructions for students on how to achieve the learning outcomes

The grade of the course is based on the final exam or two partial exams. When the points for the final exam or the partial exams are 30% of the maximum, the grade of the course may be improved by bonus points collected from the instructed exercises and homework. The passing limit is 50% of the maximum. If the student is mastering the concepts, results, short proofs and examples type of problems the evaluation is 3. For the grade 4 the student should in addition to the previous level be able to independently apply theory more. For the grade 5 the student should independently deduce results, invent solutions and compare results more than in the previous levels.

Assessment scale:

Numerical evaluation scale (1-5) will be used on the course

Partial passing:

Completion parts must belong to the same implementation
