About

In this course you will learn how to expand functions in Fourier series,
that is, in sums of sine functions with different frequencies. As you
will see, this is a surprisingly effective method of solving many
partial differential equations, for example to describe musical
instruments. You will also learn about the important question of
convergence for Fourier series, and learn to view them in a geometric
light. The continuous counterparts – the Fourier and Laplace transform – are also included in the course.

This course is open to

Exchange students at the Faculty of Science and exchange students on a university-wide agreement. Please contact your international coordinator at the University of Gothenburg if you need to know more.

Entry requirements

Knowledge equivalent to 60 credits in mathematics.

English proficiency

Incoming students should have an English level equivalent of B2 or higher as courses and materials, including presentations and exams, will be in English.

To assess your English level, you can use the self-assessment grid for reference.
