name: | Advanced Mathematics and Applications 2 |
unit value: | 6 |
description: | This course continues on from MATH1115, providing an in-depth development of fundamental concepts of calculus and linear algebra, with a particular emphasis on the underlying foundations of mathematics. The use and understanding of proof and abstract ideas will allow students to develop analytical skills which will form a base for further study in fundamental mathematics, as well as providing a foundation for a wide range of quantitative areas such as actuarial studies, computer science, economics, engineering, physics and statistics. Topics to be covered include: Calculus/Analysis - short introduction to metric spaces in the context of the calculus of functions of several variables, generalisation of the real analysis theory studied in MATH1115 to multivariable functions including limits and continuity, double integrals, Fubini's theorem, integrability of continuous functions, partial derivatives, gradients and directional derivatives, differentiation of multivariable functions, extreme values, vector functions, curves and parametrisations, infinite series, convergence tests, power series, Taylor series; Linear Algebra – subspaces, span, linear independence, bases and dimension, linear maps, duality, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, inner product spaces, Gram-Schmidt orthogonalisation, operators on inner product spaces, the spectral theorem in finite dimensions, singular value decomposition. |
