Introducing Weird Differential Equations: Delay, Fractional, Integro, Stochastic! @FacultyofKhan

Uploaded August 2020 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

A brief standalone video that introduces weird types of differential equations, where 'weird' means differential equations that aren't conventionally taught unless you get to super specialized areas. Here, they include delay differential equations, integro-differential equations, stochastic differential equations, and fractional differential equations.

Questions/requests? Let me know in the comments!

Pre-requisites: know what a differential equation is (so basically 1st year undergrad calculus should be more than enough).
