Course Description
This course introduces the general techniques frequently used in computational and applied mathematics. Applications can be found in different areas such as physics, engineering, imaging sciences and so on. Real world problems can usually be formulated by mathematical equations (e.g. differential, linear or nonlinear equations). Developing effective methods to solve and analyze the solutions is therefore important. In this course, we aim to give a brief introduction of the methods frequently used in applied mathematics to solve these problems.
The outline of the course is summarized as follows:
1. Introduction: (a) Motivation of the course; (b) Mathematical modelling of real world problems;
2. Brief introduction on some commonly used analytical approaches: (a) Initial value problem & Boundary value problem; (b) Analytic spectral (Fourier) method;
3. Numerical approach: Numerical spectral method, iterative method for solving large linear system (Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel, SOR, (preconditioned) conjugate gradient etc), Multigrid method;
4. Eigenvalue problem
5. Energy minimization problems
6. Conformal mapping: dealing with complicated domains.

Honesty in Academic Work
The Chinese University of Hong Kong places very high importance on honesty in academic work submitted by students, and adopts a policy of zero tolerance on cheating and plagiarism. Any related offence will lead to disciplinary action including termination of studies at the University. Although cases of cheating or plagiarism are rare at the University, everyone should make himself / herself familiar with the content of the following website:
http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/policy/academichonesty/and thereby help avoid any practice that would not be acceptable.
