250014 VO Linear algebra and geometry 2 (2015W)

The students thoroughly understand some advances aspects of linear algebra and the basics of multilinear algebra. They recognize the role of the algebraic theory of polynomials in the description of linear maps and are able do deal with Jordan normal forms, both in a theoretical and in a practical context. They understand tensors and their relations to multilinear maps, in particular in the case alternating multllinear forms.
