    • the general definition of weak solutions for conservation laws and "weak solution + smoothness => classical solution"
    • the notion of shock lines or shock solutions and how to find them
    • fan or rarefaction solutions and how they fit in with the method of characteristics

General Properties of Higher Order Equations

  • connection between (projected) characteristics and being able to solve for all 2nd derivatives for semi-linear equations

  • the concept of a well posed problem (in the sense of Hadamard)
  • transforming a higher order equation into a first order system
  • characteristics for a 1st order linear system and how they are related to the eigenvalue problem for the matrices in the equation
  • diagonalizing a system
  • Duhamel's principle and how is it used to solve non-homogeneous 1st and 2nd order equations

Theory of Weak Solutions

  • be familiar with multi-index notation
  • know what the adjoint operator L' is for an operator L and how it comes into the definition that an L1loc function u is a weak solution of a PDE
  • be familiar with some practical examples of verifying that a given function u is a weak solution of a given equation
  • know the theorem that says that a smooth function that is a weak solution is also a classical solution
  • know what is meant by "transmission conditions" for weak solutions of a PDE

Theory of Distributions

  • definition of a test function and a distribution plus related concepts such as compact support
  • basic examples of distributions
  • definitions of properties of distributions (mult'n by a function, derivatives, convolutions) and how they are motivated using distributions that come from L1loc functions
  • deriving properties of distributions (i.e. product rule for derivatives, etc.) from the definitions and corresponding properties for test functions
  • methods for finding fundamental solutions of ODEs
