For upper-level undergraduate and beginning graduate-level courses in Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations.

Striking a unique balance between advanced and elementary material, this text is perfect for a second course in differential equations or a first theory course in differential equations. Liu provides a complete analysis of those subjects that are of fundamental importance and related to current research—including details that other texts in the field tend to overlook. As a result, students gain a solid understanding of the topics covered then challenge their creativity with exercises, reading, and/or research projects.

  • Chapters 1-7 are targeted to undergraduates, while Chapters 8-12 are more focused on graduate level presentation.
    • Chapters 1-7 provide an elementary approach so students can apply their mathematical knowledge and Chapters 8-12 strengthen students' analysis skills.

  • Topics chosen are of fundamental importance, accessible, and related to current research.
    • Provides accessible and rigorous treatment of most important subjects that leads to current research.

  • A review of the subjects covered in an Elementary Differential Equations course—Appears in Chapter 1.
    • Describes for students some qualitative properties of differential equations that will be covered in the rest of the book.

  • End-of-section exercises.
    • Gives students ample opportunity to practice the material just learned.

  • Open-ended exercises.
    • Provides direction toward graduation theses and research in qualitative theory of differential equations.
