This course will cover important topics in linear algebra not usually discussed in a first-semester course, featuring a mixture of theory and applications.
Mathematical logic and proof, mathematical induction, counting methods, recurrence relations, algorithms and complexity, graph theory and graph algorithms.
An introduction to proofs in advanced mathematics, intended as a transition to upper division courses including MATH 4107, 4150 and 4317. Fundamentals of mathematical abstraction including sets, logic, equivalence relations, and functions. Thorough development of the basic proof techniques: direct, contrapositive, existence, contradiction, and induction. Introduction to proofs in analysis and algebra.
Overview of integral calculus, multivariable calculus, and differential equations for biological sciences. This course is required for students in School of Biology.
Real numbers, topology of Euclidean spaces, Cauchy sequences, completeness, continuity and compactness, uniform continuity, series of functions, Fourier series
This course develops in the theme of "Arithmetic congruence, and abstract algebraic structures." There will be a very strong emphasis on theory and proofs.
Primes and unique factorization, congruences, Chinese remainder theorem, Diophantine equations, Diophantine approximations, quadratic reciprocity. Applications such as fast multiplication, factorization and encryption.
Introduction to numerical algorithms for some basic problems in computational mathematics. Discussion of both implementation issues and error analysis. Crosslisted with CX 4640 (formerly CS 4642).
