Linear Algebra (7.5 ECTS credits)
The course treats: Systems of linear equations, vector spaces, the concepts of linear dependent/independent of sets of vectors, basis and dimension of a vector space, matrices of real numbers, determinants, rang of a matrix, scalar product, the producing of orthogonal sets from a given finite set of linearly independent vectors in a vector space of finite dimension, change of bases, eigenvectors and eigenvalues, diagonalization of matrices, orthogonal matrices, quadratic forms, curves of degree 2 in the Euclidean plane and surfaces of degree 2 in the Euclidean space with dimension 3.
