Learning objectives

Knowledge and understanding: The course aims to provide the basic knowledge of the spectral theory of the operators on a real or complex Euclidean space, of the theory of bilinear and sesquilinear forms, of the scalar and hermitian products, and of the forms on a Euclidean space. The student should be able to independently read and understand results of Analytical Geometry and Linear Algebra also by consulting scientific monographs.

Skills: The student should be able to solve exercises of Analytical Geometry and Linear Algebra also non-elementary.

Making judgments: The student should be able to construct and develop logical arguments with a clear identification of assumptions and conclusions; it should also be able to recognize correct demonstrations and identify fallacious reasoning.

Teaching methods

The theoretical topics of the course are presented during class lectures and illustrated with significant examples, applications and several exercises. Homework assignments are proposed during the course, which are then discussed in recitation sessions during class time.

Assessment methods and criteria

The final exam consists of a written part, where students are required to solve some exercises, and of an oral part about the theoretical topics and the applications discussed during the course. Access to the oral part is not recommended if the written part is insufficient.
The final mark turns out to be a weighted average between the evalution of the written and oral parts.
