Elementary level of programming knowledge is required. The knowledge of a high-level programming language such as C++, Fortran would help, but is not required. Preliminary Reading: 1. L. Hogben (editor). Handbook of Linear Algebra. Boca Raton, Florida: CRC Press/Taylor & Francis Group, 2014, ISBN 9781466507289. 2. B. W. Kernighan, R. Pike. The practice of programming, Reading, MA: Addison-Wesley, 1999, ISBN 020161586X. Computing Access to one of the computing environments such as C++, Fortran, Maple, Matlab, Mathematica, etc. is required in order to do the computer assignments. Teaching The course will be taught mainly in lecture format along with class examples and demonstrations. Individual Tasks (Computer Assignments) will be assigned. At the end of the terms the qualification (oral examination) will take place. Course Description This course is an introduction to numerical Linear Algebra. Subject of this course are numerical algorithms for solving problems in Linear Algebra, such as linear algebraic systems and corresponding matrix eigenvalue problems. Course Aims The aim of this course is to give tools (as classical algorithms) to solve numerically problems in Linear Algebra. Course Objectives The course gives classical algorithms to solve linear systems by different methods, and to find the eigenvalues of a matrix. The course details the mathematical theory behind numerical algorithms for solution of linear systems and eigenvalue problems. The emphasis is on iterative methods suitable for large-scale problems arising, e. g., in the discretization of partial differential equations and in network problems. Special Features Numerical Linear Algebra is no longer a subtopic of Numerical Analysis, it has grown into an independent topic for research and teaching in recent years. The reason, is, of course, obvious. Numerical Linear Algebra techniques are essential ingredients in scientific computing that are routinely used to solve practical-life problems (Signal Processing, Control Theory, Heat Transfer, Fluid Dynamics, Biomedical Engineering, Vibration, Statistics, Bioscience, Economics). Outline of Content 1. Introduction to Numerical Linear Algebra, Applications and Origin of Problems. 2. Matrix Analysis: Linear Systems and Eigenvalue Problems. 3. Direct Solution Methods. 4. Iterative Methods for Linear Algebraic Systems. 5. Iterative Methods for Eigenvalue Problems. 6. Multigrid Methods. Learning Outcomes After completing the course, the student will be able to derive and use the numerical techniques needed for a professional solution of a given linear algebra problem; distinguish and analyze a variety of tools that exist for solving linear systems and finding eigenvalues of these systems; evaluate when a problem should be solved using a direct or iterative method and what the advantages, disadvantages, and costs are for these methods; demonstrate an understanding of the way in which error in data can corrupt solution and, therefore, how much confidence you can place in the solution you obtain. Projects The goal of the project is to produce a coherent paper that explains a numerical implementation of some algorithms (Computer Assignments), and gives results. Neatness and notation is important. Course Assessment Note: Assessments subject to change. Below there is a tentative version of assessments. The final version will appear prior to start of the course. Assessment Type Number Weight Computer Assignments 5 50% Midterm 1 25% Final 1 25% Attendance Policy Students are expected to attend classes regularly, since the consistent attendance offers the most effective opportunity open to all students to gain command of the concepts and materials of the course.

    Special Western Canada Linear Algebra Meeting (17w2668) Hadi Kharaghani (University of Lethbridge), Shaun Fallat (University of Regina), Pauline van den Driessche (University of Victoria) July 7, 2017 – July 9, 2017 1 History of this Conference Series The Western Canada Linear Algebra meeting, or WCLAM, is a regular series of meetings held roughly once every 2 years since 1993. Professor Peter Lancaster from the University of Calgary initiated the conference series and has been involved as a mentor, an organizer, a speaker and participant in all of the ten or more WCLAM meetings. Two broad goals of the WCLAM series are a) to keep the community abreast of current research in this discipline, and b) to bring together well-established and early-career researchers to talk about their work in a relaxed academic setting. This particular conference brought together researchers working in a wide-range of mathematical fields including matrix analysis, combinatorial matrix theory, applied and numerical linear algebra, combinatorics, operator theory and operator algebras. It attracted participants from most of the PIMS Universities, as well as Ontario, Quebec, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, Virginia, Iran, Japan, the Netherlands and Spain. The highlight of this meeting was the recognition of the outstanding and numerous contributions to the areas of research of Professor Peter Lancaster. Peter’s work in mathematics is legendary and in addition his footprint on mathematics in Canada is very significant. 2 Presentation Highlights The conference began with a presentation from Prof. Chi-Kwong Li surveying the numerical range and connections to dilation. During this lecture the following conjecture was stated: If A 2 M3 has no reducing eigenvalues, then there is a T 2 B(H) such that the numerical range of T is contained in that of A, and T has no dilation of the form I ⊗ A.

  • Social Choice Theory Christian List
    1 Social Choice Theory Christian List Social choice theory is the study of collective decision procedures. It is not a single theory, but a cluster of models and results concerning the aggregation of individual inputs (e.g., votes, preferences, judgments, welfare) into collective outputs (e.g., collective decisions, preferences, judgments, welfare). Central questions are: How can a group of individuals choose a winning outcome (e.g., policy, electoral candidate) from a given set of options? What are the properties of different voting systems? When is a voting system democratic? How can a collective (e.g., electorate, legislature, collegial court, expert panel, or committee) arrive at coherent collective preferences or judgments on some issues, on the basis of its members’ individual preferences or judgments? How can we rank different social alternatives in an order of social welfare? Social choice theorists study these questions not just by looking at examples, but by developing general models and proving theorems. Pioneered in the 18th century by Nicolas de Condorcet and Jean-Charles de Borda and in the 19th century by Charles Dodgson (also known as Lewis Carroll), social choice theory took off in the 20th century with the works of Kenneth Arrow, Amartya Sen, and Duncan Black. Its influence extends across economics, political science, philosophy, mathematics, and recently computer science and biology. Apart from contributing to our understanding of collective decision procedures, social choice theory has applications in the areas of institutional design, welfare economics, and social epistemology. 1. History of social choice theory 1.1 Condorcet The two scholars most often associated with the development of social choice theory are the Frenchman Nicolas de Condorcet (1743-1794) and the American Kenneth Arrow (born 1921).

    MSc in Applied Mathematics Title: Past, Present and Challenges in Yang-Mills Theory Author: José Luis Tejedor Advisor: Sebastià Xambó Descamps Department: Departament de Matemàtica Aplicada II Academic year: 2011-2012 PAST, PRESENT AND CHALLENGES IN YANG-MILLS THEORY Jos´eLuis Tejedor June 11, 2012 Abstract In electrodynamics the potentials are not uniquely defined. The electromagnetic field is un- changed by gauge transformations of the potential. The electromagnestism is a gauge theory with U(1) as gauge group. C. N. Yang and R. Mills extended in 1954 the concept of gauge theory for abelian groups to non-abelian groups to provide an explanation for strong interactions. The idea of Yang-Mills was criticized by Pauli, as the quanta of the Yang-Mills field must be massless in order to maintain gauge invariance. The idea was set aside until 1960, when the concept of particles acquiring mass through symmetry breaking in massless theories was put forward. This prompted a significant restart of Yang-Mills theory studies that proved succesful in the formula- tion of both electroweak unification and quantum electrodynamics (QCD). The Standard Model combines the strong interaction with the unified electroweak interaction through the symmetry group SU(3) ⊗ SU(2) ⊗ U(1). Modern gauge theory includes lattice gauge theory, supersymme- try, magnetic monopoles, supergravity, instantons, etc. Concerning the mathematics, the field of Yang-Mills theories was included in the Clay Mathematics Institute's list of \Millenium Prize Problems". This prize-problem focuses, especially, on a proof of the conjecture that the lowest excitations of a pure four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory (i.e.
