Course literature

The course will be based on the lecture notes, but the following two books are recommended for additional reading.

Larsson & Thomée: Partial Differential Equations with Numerical Methods, Texts in Applied Mathematics 45. Springer, 2008, ISBN: 9783540887058
Renardy & Rogers: An introduction to partial differential equations. Texts in Applied Mathematics 13. Springer, 1993, ISBN: 0387979522

If you're interested in some more advanced texts for your future research regarding finite elements, (nonlinear) elliptic/parabolic equation and Sobolev spaces, then I would recommend the books below.
