- Synopsis:
-
We will introduce students to the basic concepts of linear algebra, such as vectors, matrices, vector spaces. We will define vector spaces over the field of real and complex numbers and also over finite fields. We will present the concepts of basis and dimension and learn to solve systems of linear equations using the Gaussian elimination method (GEM) and show the connection with linear manifolds. We define the regularity of matrices and learn to find their inversions using GEM. We will also learn to find eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix. We will also demonstrate some applications of these concepts in computer science.
- Requirements:
-
The ability to think mathematically and knowledge of a high school mathematics.
- Syllabus of lectures:
-
1. Fields, vectors, and vector spaces.
2. Matrices, matrix operations and matrix notation of a system of linear equations.
3. Solving systems of linear equations using Gauss elimination method.
4. Linear (in)dependence of vectors, linear span, subspace.
5. Base, dimension of a vector (sub)space.
6. Matrix rank, regularity of a matrix, inverse of matrix and its computation.
7. Frobenius theorem on solutions of a system of linear equations.
9. Linear manifolds, parametric and non-parametric equations of linear manifolds.
10. Permutations, determinant of a matrix.
11. [2] Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices.
13. Diagonalization of matrices.
