- What is a proof?
- Here are some videos of simple
solutions of the heat equation on a bounded interval, the heat equation on
a bounded interval with discontinuous
diffusivity, the wave equation on the line, and the wave equation on a
bounded interval. If you can't see the equations and math symbols for java
reasons, look at

Looking for a job?
Click here for a gzipped tar file that contains a LaTeX mass-mailing program.Click here for the version that uses the Toronto letterhead. It has to be LaTeXed on Coxeter to work.
After downloading the file, type "gunzip LookingForAJob.tar.gz", then type "tar -xvf LookingForAJob.tar". Read the "README" file in the newly created directory called LookingForAJob. (If you have the Toronto letterhead version then do all that with "TorontoLookingForAJob".) Also, here are some general tips on the job search, including tips on writing cover letters, courtesy of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Finally, Eugene Lerman has some suggestions on giving a great math job talk.
