Course objectives
The aim of the course is the study of isometric, similarity, and generic affine transformations using the tools of linear algebra. In particular, students should be able to understand and explain transformations of the Euclidean plane and space.
Syllabus
  • Isometric, similarity, and generic affine mappings, particularly, transformations of Euclidean plane and space. Definition, properties, and matrix representation. Classification via fixed points and eigenvectors. Decomposition into basic mappings (reflections with respect to hyperplanes, homotheties, basic affinities). Transformations of real plane in view of algebraic operations with complex numbers.
