Prerequisites for using the book are a solid undergraduate course in real analysis. There are more than 100 exercises in the book. Some of them are just exercises, whereas others, even though they may require new ideas to solve them, provide additional important information about the subject.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“It is a great pleasure to see this book--written by a great master of the subject--finally in print. This treatment of a core part of mathematics and its applications offers the student both a solid foundation in basic calculations techniques in the subject, as well as a basic introduction to the more general machinery, e.g., distributions, Sobolev spaces, etc., which are such a key part of any modern treatment. As such this book is ideal for more advanced undergraduates as well as mathematically inclined students from engineering or the natural sciences. Shubin has a lovely intuitive writing style which provides a gentle introduction to this beautiful subject. Many good exercises (and solutions) are provided!” - Rafe Mazzeo, Stanford University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“This text provides an excellent semester's introduction to classical and modern topics in linear PDE, suitable for students with a background in advanced calculus and Lebesgue integration. The author intersperses treatments of the Laplace, heat, and wave equations with developments of various functional analytic tools, particularly distribution theory and spectral theory, introducing key concepts while deftly avoiding heavy technicalities.” - Michael Taylor, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinear differential operators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-dimensional wave equation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Sturm-Liouville problem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistributions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConvolution and Fourier transform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarmonic functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe heat equation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSobolev spaces.
