    Aim of the course
    This core course aims at introducing students to the fundamental concepts of linear algebra with
    an introduction to abstract vector spaces and linear transformations.
    The course starts with systems of linear equations from which we develop basic concepts of
    the theory of vector spaces in the concrete setting of Rn . We then introduce linear transformations
    and matrices modelling them, similarity of matrices, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The concepts
    naturally lead to diagonalizability of linear maps and to the Spectral Theorem, which is a high
    point of this course. Finally, we generalise all concepts to the abstract setting of vector spaces.
    This subject material is foundational and is important for the study of all fields of mathematics and
    engineering.

    Course contents
    See http://www.math.iitb.ac.in/assets/pdf/btech.pdf and the reference books given there.

    Lectures and Tutorials


    There will be seven weeks of instruction with 3 hours of lectures and 1 hour of tutorial every week.
    The lectures will be uploaded in the moodle page of the course.

    Attendance Policy
    Attendance in lectures and tutorials is COMPULSORY. Students who do not meet 80% at-
    tendance will be awarded the DX grade.
    If you miss an exam for valid medical reasons, submit a medical certificate from IIT Hospital to
    Prof. Krishnan Sivasubramanian.
    Penalty for proxy: Students not found in class, but with biometric attendance will get an FR
    in this course.

    Grading Policy
    There will be one common quiz and one end-semester exam (which will coincide with the mid-
    semester exam of other courses). The dates of the exams will be announced in the class and the
    moodle page later.
    The allotted 50 marks will be split as follows:
    Common quiz : 15 marks
    Endsem exam : 30 marks
    TA evaluation : 05 marks
