Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

Foundadtion course in mathematics

Intended learning outcomes

To give a unified framework for geometrical and algebraic techniques, with applications in analysis, mechanics, computer graphics, numerical analysis, mathematical statistics, control theory, linear optimization and other subjects. It is also included to develop the ability of using the mathematical language both written and oral. It is necessary for the participant to be able to

solve systems of linear equations

work with inner and cross product

calculate with matrices and determinants

calculate with vectors and coordinates in a vector space

determine the matrix for a linear transformation and the kernel and the range for such matrices

determine ON-basis in an inner product space

do orthogonal projection on subspaces and to use least squares approximations

solve problems by changing basis

determine and to use eigenvalues and eigenvectors in different problems

use the spectral theorem in different problems

determine the canonical basis of quadratic forms and to use these to solve geometrical problems.

carry out inspections of results and partial results, in order to verify that these are correct or reasonable

solve system of linear ordinary differential equations

Course content

Vectors, straight lines and planes. Linear systems of equations. Matrices and determinants. Vector spaces. Euclidean spaces.
Linear mappings. Isometric and symmetric mappings. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Diagonalization. Otrhogonality. Quadratic forms. Distance and approximation. System of linear ordinary differential equations

Teaching and working methods

The course is given in the form of lectures and tutorials.
