PHYS 82.02 Introductory Mathematical Methods for Physicists

This course surveys topics from linear algebra and differential equations, selected for their importance in upper-level physics courses,  Topics from linear algebra will include complex numbers, systems of equations, matrices, vector spaces, and the eigenvalue problem. Topics from differential equations will include linear differential equations, series solutions, systems of differential equations, and partial differential equations (separation of variables). The course will serve as an alternate to the Math22/23/24 prerequisite for physics majors.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
