To equip the students with standard concepts and tools at an intermediate to advanced level
mathematics to develop the confidence and ability among the students to handle various real world
problems and their applications.
COURSE OUTCOMES:
After successful completion of the course, the students are able to
1. solve given system of equations using rank method.
2. compute eigen values and eigen vectors of a given matrix.
3. examine given function of two variables for the extreme values using partial differentiation.
4. determine the solution of a given first and higher order differential equations.
Vector Space: Definition, subspace; Linear dependence and independence of vectors; Linear
Transformations; Rank of a matrix by echelon form, normal form. Consistency of system of linear
equations-Homogeneous and Non-Homogeneous equations.
Eigenvalues, Eigenvectors of a matrix, Cayley-Hamilton Theorem (without proof), finding inverse and
power of a matrix by Cayley-Hamilton Theorem. Diagonal form, Reduction of Quadratic form to
canonical form by Orthogonal Transformation. Properties of complex matrices - Hermitian, skew
Hermitian and Unitary matrices.
Differential Calculus:Taylor's and Maclaurin's series expansion of functions of single variable. Partial
differentiation, Euler's theorem on homogeneous functions, total derivative, change of variables, Maxima
and minima of two variables, Lagrange method of multipliers.
Ordinary Differential Equations: Solution of first order ODE-exact equations and equations reducible
to exact form, orthogonal trajectories. Higher order linear differential equations with constant coefficients
- homogenous and non-homogenous: e ax , sin(ax+b), cos(ax+b), Wronskian, Method of variation of
parameters, Cauchy's differential equations.
