Content
The topics of the lecture are:
- vector spaces
- differential equations
- the Laplace transformation
- vector valued functions of several variables
Tutorial
We offer a tutorial, where a tutor (Weixuan Zhang, zhangweixuanpeter@googlemail.com , a senior student) discusses problems/problem sheets with you. This tutor will also correct your homework.
During the semester the tutorial will take place each Friday from 2 to 3:30 pm, in the seminar room ID SE 203.
Please note that the tutorials start on April 20th, 2012.
Problem Sheets
Every week, a new worksheet with 5 problems will be handed out. On each problem you can get up to 10 points. Your solutions must be handed in the next week. Please hand in your homework into the AM2-box near seminar room Z1, building 01.85 (Fritz-Erler-Str. 1-3) or give it to your tutor.
During the semester you will find more information on problems here. Additionally we offer some practice tests.
The problem sheets will be handed out in class. You can also download them as pdf-files below.

The testat
If you successfully work on the home work and the in class quizzes, a testat will be given to you at the end of the semester, which is required for registration for the exam.
Please note: The AM II exam is part of the Orientierungsprüfung, which you must complete by the end of the third semester.
For the testat, you have to satisfy the following criteria:
- obtain at least 135 points on worksheets 1 to 11. This is approximately 25% of all the total points obtainable (each worksheet is worth 50 points)
- have at least 5 points from at least 8 of those worksheets.
- Each week there will be a short in class quiz, which is worth 5 points maximum. You need to get at least 30 points on 12 quizzes and obtain at least 1 point on each of at least 10 quizzes.

Examination
Please note: The AM II exam is part of the Orientierungsprüfung, which you must complete by the end of the third semester.
The examinations in Advanced Mathematics II will take place on August 4, 2012, 9.00-11.00 am. During the exam the use of the following materials is allowed:
- the AM I and AM II lecture notes including any handwritten notes in your copy,
- a printed book of formulae,
- one mathematical text book.
It is not allowed to use any electronical devices (calculator, etc.) and collections of old exams or other material.
