| Objective | The objective of this course is to study the basics of 3 important subjects of Applied mathemetics: Fixed Point Theory, Approximation Theory and Optimisation Theory with their applications in Data science, Physics and Economics |
| Content |
(1) Banach Fixed Point Theory and its applications: Newton's Method, Cobweb Thm, Picard Thm, Gauss-Seidel Iteration, Fredholm-Volterra Thm. Applications in economics (2) Approximation Theory. Uniform and approximation in the sense of . Convexity, Haar's condition. Applications. (3) Optimisation Theory basics with numerical viewpoint by usual algorithmes |
| Course Learning Outcomes | Student who succeed this course will learn about 3 important theories in Applied Mathematics and learn how they are used (with data, algorithmes and coding) in different areas of application. |
