Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The proseminar complements the course material and provides feedback for the homework assignments.

Assessment and permitted materials

evaluation of three homework assignments.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

A basic understanding of free surface water waves, ranging from linear theory to nonlinear aspects.

Examination topics

An interplay of methods from various branches of pure mathematics (e.g. topology, complex analysis, functional analysis, differential equations, differential geometry, partial differential equations) and applied mathematics (e.g. multiple scales, non-dimensionalisation) will be used.
