Announcements:
Every Tuesday is held the Mathematics Undergraduate Colloquium at
12:55pm. I enjoin you to attend them as they will show you connections
between different areas of Maths, and also will show you some
applications of them.
The next one is actually directly related to our course: David Vogan,
MIT, will present "Diagonalizing Group Actions" in LCB 121 (this is not
the usual room) on 09/28.
Monday 11/01 there will be no lecture, instead we will do a lab session
in LCB 115 at the regular hours.
Office hours
Mondays: 2:00pm-3:00pm
Wednesdays: 3:00pm-4:00pm
Appointments can be made (send me an email), I will prefer to meet
you on Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays.
Exams
First midterm will be held Monday 10/04. Program: Chapter 1,
Chapter 2, Chapter 3: sections 1 and 2 (in those sections I will only
test you on kernels and images of linear maps, and on linear subspaces,
no linear independance, no bases). Moreover you will be allowed to
bring one sheet of notes.
You can find the solutions for the first midterm here in postscript
format and in pdf
format.
Second midterm will be held Wednesday 11/17. Program: until chapter
5, section 2 (Only Gram-Scmidt process, no QR-factorization). This exam will last 1h30mn.
Moreover you will be allowed to
bring one sheet of notes.
You can find the solutions for the second midterm here.
Final exam: Thursday, December
16, 2004 3:30 - 5:30 pm in the regular classroom.

Maple section (grab projects and
other work sheets here):
Here you can find the introduction
work sheet for Monday 11/01 lab session.
Here you can find the introduction
work sheet to the project (here in html
format if you just want be able to read through it), and the project
work sheet (here in html
format if you just want be able to read through it).
To complete your project, just use the introduction work sheet as a
template, and modify what is necessary.
You can turn in the maple project until the last day of class in
December, and you can either turn it in just by sending the file in
attachment at allaud@math.utah.edu (if you choose to do that, please
give this file a name made up from your lastname and the first letter
of your first name, example, I would have a file name allaude.mw) or on
paper.
You can find a tutorial about linear algebra with Maple (though Maple
help is also a great way to learn it): here as
a maple work sheet, here in
pdf format.
Practice exams (here I will put everything I think is relevant to
prepare you for the exams)
Here is the first practice exam in postscript
format and in pdf
format. Remark: exercise 6 is not in
the exam program (I will not ask you anything about linear independance
and bases in the exam).
You can find the solutions here in postscript
format and in pdf
format.
Here is the second practice exam in postscript
format and in pdf
format.

for the solutions.
The final is comprehensive it includes all chapters from 1 to 7 (up to
section 7.4); there will be an emphasis on the last part of the
lectures though. The following are excluded:
- QR factorization (in 5.3);
- Data fitting (in 5.4);
- Fourier analysis (in 5.5);
- section 3 in chapter 6 (geometric interpretation of determinants);
- Dynamical systems (in 7.1).
To prepare your final: there is no practice exam, but a good way to
review is to use the 2 previous practices and tests. Moreover here are
some exercises that you can do (I put a lot of exercises here, you can
just pick a few of each type for example) (I will do some of these in class Wed 12/8
for chapters 5.4, 5.5, 7):
- 3.1: 1-37; 3.2: 1-34, 36,37, 42-48, 50-56; 3.3: 1-25, 27-38, 44, 47, 56, 57,
60; 3.4: 1-47,53-61,69-72.
