Course objectives
Mathematics I (KMMATI) The aim of the subject is to introduce students to the principal mathematical means necessary to formulate and solve economic problems. The graduates of the course should understand and be able to use basic terms and methods of linear algebra, especially matrices and solving systems of linear algebraic equations. They also repeat some topics from elementary differential calculus. The course is followed by Mathematics II. (KMMAT2)
Syllabus
  • The basics of mathematical logic and the theory of sets. Elementary functions. Matrices, matrix relations and operations.
  • Vector spaces. Linear dependence and independence. Basis and dimension. Scalar product, norm and distance.
  • Determinants. Matrix rank. Systems of linear equations. Cramer's rule, elimination methods.
  • Frobenius theorem. Description of solution sets for homogenous and inhomogeneous systems. Computation of matrix inverse. Eigenvectors and eigenvalues.
