Objective

This course deals in depth with the subject of linear algebra. Linear algebra is the basis of many techniques used in many fields such as computer science, automata and economics. Throughout the course, the basic concepts of linear algebra will be explored with an emphasis on real Euclidean spaces and vector spaces of polynomials.

In this context, the objectives of the course are:

- Introduce students to all the axiomatic definitions and signs of linear algebra: group, vector space, matrix ...
- Teach students a number of simple computational techniques that will facilitate solving linear algebra problems: solving a linear system, factoring a polynomial, simplifying a rational fraction, inverting a matrix.
- Explain the concept of dimension and its properties in a vector space.
- Show students the link between a linear function and its different matrix representations.
