Overview
- Focuses on the theoretical aspect of ODEs without emphasis on lengthy technical applications of special equations from physics and engineering
- Uses carefully selected and organized material to cover all significant text with analytic, easily comprehensible explanations
- Simplifies and/or modifies many statements and proofs of theorems and introduces symbolic abbreviations for frequently used concepts and terms
- Gives hints for proof-oriented exercises and answers to computational exercises

About this book
Reviews
“All material is carefully organized and presented in a transparent manner. The text contains a large number of solved problems which illustrate well theoretical material. Each chapter concludes with a selection of exercises for independent study; hints and answers to exercises are collected in the end of the book along with a useful list of references and a subject index. … Undoubtedly, this book is a very valuable contribution to existing texts on qualitative theory of differential equations.” (Yuriy V. Rogovchenko, zbMATH, Vol. 1326.34007, 2016)
