Description

Version: 4.0 start 01 February 2025
 

Short description

Students are familiarised with vector spaces, linear mappings, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. They learn how to mathematically describe linear mappings on vector spaces, using vectors and matrices, and apply these concepts to Fourier analysis and to the solution of linear differential equations.

Learning objectives (competencies)

Objectives Competences Taxonomy levels

You are familiar with the abstract notion of a vector space and its
subspaces. You can describe vectors as coordinate vectors with
respect to some basis. In particular, you know the Fourier series
as an application of this concept.

F, M K2, K3
You are familiar with linear mappings between vector spaces and you are
able to describe them with respect to arbitrary bases using matrices and
vectors.
F, M K2, K3
You can calculate eigenvalues and eigenvectors of linear mappings
and examine matrices for their diagonalizability. You are able to apply the
diagonalization of matrices as an important practical insight from linear algebra
to technical contexts.
F, M K2, K3

You are able to identify and to solve linear ordinary differential
equations with constant coefficients.
