Course objectives
The course is the first part of the four semester block Mathematics I - IV. In the entire block, the fundamentals of general algebra, linear algebra and analysis, numerical methods, combinatorics and graph theory, including some applications in probability theory and statistics are presented. Passing Mathematics I-IV 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 course Mathematics I, in particular, aims at the principles of mathematics, linear algebra, elementary geometry and some explicit applications.
Syllabus
  • Scalars, scalar functions, combinatorial examples and identities, finite probability, geometric probability, difference equations.
  • Motivation geometric problems in space and plane, systems of linear equations, elimination of variables.
  • Relations and mappings, injectiv and surjectiv mappings, set cardinality, equivalences and decompositions.
  • Vector, vector space, linear independence, basis, linear mappings, matrices, matrix calculus and determinants.
  • Algebraical applications: systems of linear equations, linear difference equations, Markov chains
  • Geometrical applications: line, plane, parametric versus non-paramteric descriptions, positioning of planes and lines, projective space extension, angle, length, volume.
