Course objectives
The course is the first part of the four semester block of Mathematics. In the entire course, the fundamentals of general algebra and number theory, linear algebra, mathematical analysis, numerical methods, combinatorics, as well as probability and statistics are presented. Passing this four semester course will allow the student to deal with basic mathematical concepts and problems and he/she will master the discrete and continuous intuition necessary for the mathematical formulation of real problems. The first part of the course, in particular, aims at the principles of mathematics, linear algebra, elementary geometry and some explicit applications.
Syllabus
  • 1. Warm up (4 weeks) -- scalars, scalar functions, combinatorial examples and identities, finite probability, geometric probability, geometry of the plane, relations and mappings, eqivalences nad orderings.
  • 2. Vectors and matrices (3 weeks) -- vectors, vector space, linear independence, basis, linear mappings, matrices, matrix calculus and determinants, orthogonality, eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
  • 3. Linear models (3 weeks) -- systems of linear (in)equalities, linear programming problem, linear difference equations, iterated processes (population models) and Markov chains.
  • $. Analytical geometry (2 weeks) -- geometrical applications: line, plane, parametric versus non-paramteric descriptions, positioning of planes and lines, projective space extension, angle, length, volume, elementary classification of quadrics.
