چکیده
Fully nonlinear first-order equations are typically hard to solve without some conditions placed on the PDE. In this presentation we hope to present the Method of Characteristics, as well as introduce Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control. The content in the Method of Characteristics section is directly from Evans, sometimes with more detail.

Numerical Solution of Nonlinear PDEs by Using Two-Level Iterative Techniques and Radial Basis Functions
Radial basis function method has been used to handle linear and nonlinear equations. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the method of RBF to an existing method in solving nonlinear two-level iterative techniques and also the method is implemented to four numerical examples. The results reveal that the technique is very effective and simple. Th...
متن کاملA discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for time dependent partial differential equations with higher order derivatives
In this paper, we develop a new discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element method for solving time dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) with higher order spatial derivatives. Unlike the traditional local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method, the method in this paper can be applied without introducing any auxiliary variables or rewriting the original equation into a larger system. Stab...
متن کاملA Third Order Fast Sweeping Method with Linear Computational Complexity for Eikonal Equations
Fast sweeping methods are a class of efficient iterative methods for solving steady state hyperbolic PDEs. They utilize the Gauss-Seidel iterations and alternating sweeping strategy to cover a family of characteristics of the hyperbolic PDEs in a certain direction simultaneously in each sweeping order. The first order fast sweeping method for solving Eikonal equations (Zhao in Math Comput 74:60...
متن کاملComparison of Viscosity Solutions of Fully Nonlinear Degenerate Parabolic Path-Dependent PDEs
We prove a comparison result for viscosity solutions of (possibly degenerate) parabolic fully nonlinear path-dependent PDEs. In contrast with the previous result in Ekren, Touzi & Zhang [10], our conditions are easier to check and allow for the degenerate case, thus including first order path-dependent PDEs. Our argument follows the regularization method as introduced by Jensen, Lions & Sougani...
متن کاملNew Integral Transform for Solving Nonlinear Partial Dierential Equations of fractional order
In this work, we have applied Elzaki transform and He's homotopy perturbation method to solvepartial dierential equation (PDEs) with time-fractional derivative. With help He's homotopy per-turbation, we can handle the nonlinear terms. Further, we have applied this suggested He's homotopyperturbation method in order to reformulate initial value problem. Some illustrative examples aregiven in ord...
