Lectures

  • Lecture 1 (Aug 25): Givental's book, section 1: Vector.
  • HW 1: page 7 in [LA], pick at least 4 problems from 1-12 and solve it. (Givental's exercises are too interesting to be put in the quiz. So our quiz will be decoupled from the HW actually. Our first quiz will be a test run, and no grade will be recorded.)
