Content
- Systems of linear equations,
- Matrix calculus,
- Vector spaces,
- Linear applications,
- Euclidean spaces, orthogonal projection and approximation problems,
- Linear operators, eigenvectors and diagonalization, Jordan form and matrix exponential
- Adjoint operator, spectral theorem, quadratic forms, law of inertia,
- Sequences and series, linear differential equations
Teaching methods
Lectures in auditorium, supervised exercise sessions and problem based learning, possibly supplemented with writing assignments and online exercises.
Some of the above activities (lectures, exercise sessions, problem based learning) may be organised on line.
Some of the above activities (lectures, exercise sessions, problem based learning) may be organised on line.
Evaluation methods
The written examination will cover the learning outcomes. Two placement tests at the beginning and end of S1, as well as 2 assignments (peer-reviewed) to be carried out during the term, are compulsory; these four activities, evaluated globally, count for 1 point out of 20.
