Objectives
The objectives are: to transmit to the students various techniques of integration of diferential equations and systems of diferential equations, including physical and geometrical interpretations and also integration in curves and surfaces in three dimensions. The concepts and applications of trigonometric polinomial approximations and Fourier series are also considered a main objective
Program
Introduction to differential equations: general classification, definition of solution and of boundary value problems. Ordinary differential equations of first order: the existence and uniqueness theorem; separable equations; homogeneous equations; linear equations (homogeneous and non homogeneous). Some problems modeled by first order equations: problems in mechanics, population dynamics. Exact equations and integrating factors. Non linear equations reducible to linear ones: the Bernoulli equation. Ordinary higher order differential equations reducible to lower order equations. Linear equations of order greater than one: general theory of homogeneous and non homogeneous linear nth order equations. Existence and uniqueness theorem. General solution for homogeneous linear equations with constant coefficients. Linear non homogeneous equations: the variation of parameters method. Systems of first order linear equations: introduction and its relation with an nth order linear differential equation. Some examples. Basic theory of systems of first order linear equations. Homogeneous linear equations with constant coefficients. Real or complex single eigenvalues case and repeated eigenvalues case. Fundamental matrices. The method of variation of parameters for non homogeneous systems. The Laplace transform: definition and existence conditions. Laplace transform of some basic functions using the definition. Main properties of Laplace transform: first and second translation theorems and the transform of the derivative. Inverse Laplace transform. Solution of initial value problems and of differential equations with discontinuous forcing functions, using the Laplace transform. Impulse functions and Dirac δ-function. The convolution theorem.
Line integral of scalar and vector functions. Independence of path. Work done by a force. Green’s Theorem. Surface integral. Area of a surface, mass, center of gravity, centroid and moment of inertia. Flux integral. Theorems of Stoke´s and Gauss. FOURIER ANALYSIS Fourier Series. Euler formulas.

Teaching methods and learning activities
Theoretical and practical lessons. In the theoretical classes detailed deduction of all the chapters of the program is presented where deduction and abstraction is fundamental.
In the theoretical-practical classes the students are presented with problems to solve by themselves after examples are given
