MATE-1105 Linear Algebra I

At a first approximation (i.e. when considering small perturbations), problems in Engineering and Physics can be treated as linear problems. In this course the main objective is to introduce students to the main tools to model these linear situations: vector spaces and linear transformations. Vector spaces provide the structures of admissible objects, and linear transformation a way to relate these structures. In order to familiarize students with this very abstract branch of Mathematics, this course is focused on the study of finite dimen- sional vector spaces, matrices, scalar products and diagonalization, without leaving aside the computational aspects of this subject.
