  <course-description>&lt;span&gt;&lt;p&gt;The course will discuss the three main classes of equations: elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic. Topics will include:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Fundamental solutions&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Maximum principles&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Regularity (smoothness) of solutions&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Variational problems&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Holder and Sobolev spaces&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Note: Graduate students attend joint classes with later year undergraduate students but are assessed separately.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</course-description>
