Course objectives
The third from the series of lectures on linear algebra and geometry is devoted to the following three topics: quadrics and their classification, multilinear algebra and connection between polynomial matrices and the Jordan canonical form. These topics find applications in differential geometry and ordinary differential equations.
Syllabus
  • Afinne and projective spaces: definitions, subspaces, endomorphisms, complexification. Quadrics in affine and projective spaces: definitions, projective classification, conjugate points, tangent planes, affine classification. Metric properties of quadrics: main directions, main planes, metric classification. Multilinear algebra: dual space, tensor product, external and symmetric products,coordinates of tensors, functor Hom a its relation to tensor product. Polynomial matrices: equivalence, kanonical forms, connection with characteristic and minimal polynomial, Jordanovým canonical form.
