Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are also called initial value problems because a time zero value for each first-order differential equation is needed. The following is an example of a ...

First-order systems are those which can be described by first-order differential equations. A common example is the RC circuit. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to ...

First‑order differential equations, linear and separable equations, integrating factors, applications. Second‑order linear differential equations. Fundamental solutions, linear independence, Wronskian ...

An important characterization of a numerical method for first order ODE's is the region of absolute stability. If all eigenvalues of the linear problem y' = Ay are inside this region, the numerical ...
