Textbook</h4>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The textbook for this course is Roger Knobel's "An introduction to the mathematical theory of waves", American Mathematical Society 1999, Student Mathematical Library Vol 3. This is a reasonably priced monograph which we will completely cover. Some material on separation of variables will be gotten from other sources, see below. Some homework problems will come from this text, but most will come from other sources. </span><br />

Grading</h4>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Homework sets are assigned weekly. Homework is due at the beginning of class on its due date. Late homework is not accepted. Every homework set you hand in should have a header containing your name, student number, due date, course, and the homework number as a title. Your homework should be neat and readable. Your homework score may reflect the presentation of your homework set. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Your course grade will be calculated by weighing your homework, midterm, and final exam scores in the proportions 50%, 15%, and 35%, respectively. </span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
