AMCS 202 Applied Mathematics II

Prerequisites: Advanced and multivariate calculus and elementary complex variables. AMCS 201 and AMCS 202 may be taken separately or in either order. No degree credit for AMCS majors. Part of a fast-paced two-course sequence in graduate applied mathematics for engineers and scientists, with an emphasis on analytical technique. A review of linear spaces (basis, independence, null space and rank, condition number, inner product, norm and Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization) in the context of direct and iterative methods for the solution of linear systems of equations arising in engineering applications. Projections and least squares. Eigen analysis, diagonalization and functions of matrices. Complex analysis, Cauchy-Riemann conditions, Cauchy integral theorem, residue theorem, Taylor and Laurent series, contour integration and conformal mapping.
