Contents

Linear algebra:

  • Unitary vector spaces
  • normal form theory
  • multilinear Algebra

Qualification Goals

Technical skills: The students

  • are able to master advanced principles of linear and multilinear structures and apply them to simple mathematical questions,
  • acquire the basic mathematical knowledge, which is the basis for the entire course of study.

Soft skills: The students should

  • practice mathematical working methods (development of mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training of abstraction, understanding of the strict axiomatic structure of mathematical areas on a (comparatively) simple structure),
  • improve their oral communication skills in the recitation calsses by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during discussion.

Prerequisites

Translation is missing. Here is the German original:

Keine. Empfohlen werden die Kompetenzen, die im Basismodul Lineare Algebra I mit Grundlagen der Mathematik oder Lineare Algebra I vermittelt werden.
