Where MATH-3203 counts
Counts toward 3 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:
Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 71 of 141 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.
Description
This course introduces students to inner product spaces; properties of Hermitian and normal matrices; unitary matrices; factorization theorems; Schur's Theorem; the Spectral Theorem; the Cayley-Hamilton Theorem; and quadratic forms. At the discretion of the instructor, other advanced topics in linear algebra may be covered.
Requisite courses
MATH-1401(3) and MATH-2203(3) and either MATH-1101(6) or MATH-1104(3) [prerequisite(s)].
