Abstract

In this project, which is a continuation of a previous study developed by the student, we propose the study of variation methods applied to the resolution of elliptic partial differential equations. We believe that such subject enriches the mathematical background of the student, as well as provide him better conditions to continue his studies in a graduate program in mathematics.
