Learning objectives

The course introduces the basic techniques of linear algebra, which is a fundamental tool in most applications of mathematics. At the end of the course, the students will be able to analyze and model problems in a rigorous way and to recognize applicability of linear algebra in different contexts. In particular, they will be able to employ tools and techniques of linear algebra to solve problems of matrix decompositions, analysis of linear maps, orthogonalization and computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The students will be able to precisely describe the solution of a problem employing the appropriate terminology. Moreover, they will acquire adequate confidence on the topics studied that will allow them to independently deepen their knowledge starting from what they learned.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Program

Linear systems and matrices.
Inverse matrices.
Gauss elimination.
Vector spaces and linear applications.
Bases and matrix representation of linear applications.

Didactic methods

The teaching activities include hours of classroom lessons.

Learning assessment procedures

The written exam consists of the solution of some exercises on the topics of the course.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

Knowledge and understanding: understanding the text of the problem and knowledge of the underlying theoretical argument.
Applied knowledge and understanding: ability to apply general techniques to the specific problem.
Making judgements: ability to express the theoretical concepts learned in different situations.
Communication skills: clarity and appropriateness of language. Ability to learn: ability to set up a demonstration different from those presented in the course.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The written exam grade will be considered the final grade.
