- Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
- fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 19 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- This is the third part of a four semester block of Mathematics. The entire course covers the fundamentals of general algebra and number theory, linear algebra, mathematical analysis, numerical methods, and combinatorics. This semester is concerned with Calculus in more variables and (ordinary) differential equations and, in the second half, graph theory including selected applications.
- Learning outcomes
- At the end of this course, students should be able to:
use methods of calculus in the case of functions in more variables, including integration over curves and surfaces; solve basic optimization problems; exploit differential equations in continuous modeling;
understand basic concepts of the graph theory and apply basic graph algorithms; manage simple usage of generating functions in combinatorial computations - Syllabus
- Calculus in more variables (5 weeks)- partial derivatives, differential, integral calculus in more variables, selected applications of Calculus
- Ordinary differential equations (3 weeks) - scalar and vector differential equations, numerical solutions.
- Graph theory (5 weeks) - elementary concepts; selected graph algorithms; generating functions
- Literature
- recommended literature

- Teaching methods
- The lectures combining theory with problem solving will be based on material for individual learning, which should precede the lectures. Seminar groups devoted to solving computatinal/practical problems.
- Assessment methods
- Four hours of lectures, two hours of tutorial. Final written test followed by oral examination. Results of tutorials/homeworks are partially reflected in the assessment.
