Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student knows the theory of vector spaces (real and complex) of finite dimension and linear application. He acquires the fundamental notions of analytic geometry in two and three dimensional space. In particular the student can solve linear system, find eigenvalues and eigenvectors, diagonalize real symmetric and complex hermitian matrices, solve simple problems of geometry.
Course contents
Vector spaces, linear maps, completion theorem, dimension theorem, spectral theorem. Scalar products and hermitian products.
Readings/Bibliography
Algebra Lineare, Lang, ed. Boringhieri.
Teaching methods
Lectures in class.
Assessment methods
The exam is written and oral. The written examination is three hours long and consists in the solution of 4 to 6 exercises. The exercises may also contain a theoretical part. To get to the oral examination is necessary a grade of 18/30 or above.
