Wikiversity participants who are interested in mathematics are invited to create and develop learning projects and learning resources and help organize them by developing this portal.
Linear algebra (Osnabrück 2024-2025)/Part I
Linear algebra is a fundamental course in mathematics. It deals with "linear structures“: linear systems of equations, vectors and their representation, bases and base change, linear mappings and matrices, determinants, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, optimal descriptions of linear mappings, affine mappings, normed vector spaces, lengths and angles, analytic geometry, isometries and symmetries, bilinear forms, more general algebraic structures like equivalence relations, groups, residue class construction, and multilinear algebra.
One could learn the following topics in the following order, although it is also possible to skip certain courses according to one's interests. These courses are also the most commonly found courses in a mathematics undergraduate concentration in English-speaking universities. However, universities will differ in their course titles and content, so that there is no universal list of undergraduate courses.
