Course objectives
The course presents basic methods for solving systems of linear algebraic equations, for the matrix inversion, for the calculation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices and singular matrix decomposition.
Syllabus
  • 1. Storage of numerical data in a computer. Errors in numerical algorithms, propagation of the errors. Stability of the algorthims. Ill-posed methods. 2. Systems of linear algebraic equations, direct and iterational metods. The Gauss elimination method, pivoting. LU decomposition. Systems with special matrices. The Choleski theorem and the Choleski method. The iteration methods, the Jacobi method, the Gauss-Seidel method. The problem of the convergence of the iteration methods. 3. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices. The Jacobi-method. The Householder transformation and the QL method. 4. Singular value decomposition and its applications. Linear regression.
