Description

This course is a continuation of the mathematics taught in L1 and the1st semester of L2. The mathematical tools required by physicists in linear and bilinear algebra will be studied. Next, differential equations and Fourier analysis will be covered. Finally, all the mathematical knowledge acquired in L2 will be applied to the solution of physics problems, either analytically or with the aid of computer tools.

Objectives

Learn to manipulate the mathematical tools used in physics. More specifically, at the end of this course, students will be able to manipulate linear and bilinear algebra. They will also be able to apply mathematical tools to real physics examples, and to use Fourier analysis (illustrated by signal processing) and differential equations.
