Course description and aims

This course covers the concepts and examples of vector spaces and linear maps in linear algebra. Exercise problems will be presented in class to cement understanding. This course follows "Advanced Linear Algebra I. "

Knowledge in concrete linear algebra using matrices being assumed, this course deals with abstract theory on such subjects as dual space, bilinear form, quotient space, tensor product, etc. This is important not only in its own right but also as practical exercises for students to acquire basic skills in learning other fields of advanced mathematics.

Student learning outcomes

To understand important notions such as dual space, bilinear form, quotient space, tensor product, etc., and to become able to make use of them.

Keywords

dual space, bilinear form, quotient space, tensor product

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Standard lecture course accompanied by discussion sessions
