Diagonalization x Diff Eq collab: Systems of differential equations

11.1: Basics of systems of differential equations

Systems of differential equations involve multiple interrelated differential equations that describe how several variables change with respect to one another over time.

In these notes, you’ll learn the basics of formulating and solving systems of differential equations using matrices, and vice versa.

Constant coefficient systems refer to systems of differential equations where the coefficients are constant and don’t dependent explicitly on time.

In these notes, you’ll explore methods for solving these systems, based on the type of eigenvalues in the coefficient matrix.
