The aim of this course is to present essential aspects of the modern variational theory of partial differential equations and its application to the analysis of modern numerical methods. It will cover the essential foundations in applied functional analysis and Sobolev spaces for the treatment of weak solutions of partial differential equations. It will also include key aspects of the mathematical analysis of finite dimensional approximations as used in modern numerical computations.
