Summary
Systems of n ordinary linear differential equations of the first order for n functions: definition, representation at matrix form, methods of solution of systems of 2 equations for 2 functions, Euler method for homogeneous systems of n equations for n functions. Integral calculus of functions of several independent variables: two-dimensional integrals, three-dimensional integrals, vector analysis, line integral of the first and the second kind, surface integral of the first and second kind.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The aim of the subject is to extend the mathematical topics from the bachelor study. Students will become familiar with systems of linear differential equations, double, triple, curve, and surface integrals and with basic concepts from field theory.
