Framing Expectations for the Summer Quarter

I We acknowledge this is a very unusual and challenging times


I This is a new format of teaching.
I Submissions will be according PST time
I We acknowledge there are di↵erent times zones which will be
addressed by having 24 hours or more to complete the final
exam.
Online zoom guidelines

I Be in a quiet place and use headphones


I Video on (in video or participant settings make sure your
name is the name you want to be called)
I Quit all other screens (email, text, social media) – creates a
classroom “presence” and also helps with internet stability
I Mute microphone unless talking
I Raise hand if you have a question
Enrollment

I Students who are inquiring about enrollment should email to


ugrad@math.ucla.edu
Ordinary Di↵erential Equations

Ubiquitous in Applied Math.


We will study approximate Numerical Solution to Initial Value
Problems.
Start with review of ODE’s.

Grading and Calendar

One midterm and one final exam.


Grading Breakdown:
Homework assignments: 50%.
Midterm:20%
The midterm will be held on the forth week August 24, and
will be open book open notes exam. You will have 24 hours
to complete the exam.
Final: 30%.
Exams

I The examinations are open-book and open-notes.


I There will be no make-up exams.
I You are allowed to miss the midterm exam only in exceptional
circumstances such as illness.
I Official documentation is required as proof, and the approval
is at the sole discretion of the instructor. You must inform the
instructor at least one week ahead. Otherwise missing the
exam will result a zero score in that exam.
I You must take the final exam in order to pass the course.
Homework Assignments: Consist of both theoretical and
computational work (programming in Matlab).
The homework assignments will be submitted on CCLE or
Gradescale. Your lowest homework score will not be counted
towards your final homework grade.
Homeworks will be posted on the CCLE website
Online Discussion Forum: You can use the forum on ccle to post
questions related to the course, so that your classmates can answer
or discuss with you.
Textbooks and References

(Officially) Required: R. L. Burden and J. D. Faires, Numerical


analysis, 9th or 10th edition.
Computing:
Enrolled students will have accounts on virtual machines to replace
the PIC lab. Matlab will be our software.
Programming environments
Matlab (preferred) or Python
Extra Help: Come to my (online zoom) office hours to discuss
any aspect of the course. The TA will hold his office hours (to be
announced).
Academic Honesty: You are responsible to abide to the UCLA
Conduct Code. In particular, make sure that your write up your
own homework and computer code.

Well Posedness of IVP problem

We begin with definitions of Well Posedness of IVP problem.


The IVP problem is to find a function y (t) such that
⇢ 0
y (t) = f (t, y (t)) atb
(1)
y (a) = ↵ initial condition

for the ODE


y 0 (t) = f (t, y (t))
