    5. Required knowledge

    Linear algebra, mathematical analysis.

    6. Pre-requisites
    Ajánlott:
    None. 
    7. Objectives, learning outcomes and obtained knowledge We would like to give an overview of the most commonly used methods of numerical algebra and numerical analysis. The aim of the class is to make the methods used for solving numerical problems in practice familiar to the students, who will learn how to choose the procedure which fits the given problem the best.
    8. Synopsis

    1) Vector and matrix norms, applications to some important estimates, Rayleigh quotient.

    2) Localisation of the eigenvalues, Gershgorin circles.

    3) Singular values of a matrix. Singular value decomposition.

    4) Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse.

    5) Linear equation systems, condition number.

    6) Numerical solution of linear equation systems. Direct methods: Crout version of Gaussian elimination.

    7) Solving a linear equation system when the coeffient matrix is tridiagonal.

    8) Conjugate gradient method.

    9) Iterative methods: Gauss-Seidel method; Successive over-relaxation. Alternating direction method.

    10) Application: solving the Poisson equation. Tensor product.

    11) Numerical solution of the eigenvalue problem.

    12) The power iteration and the inverse iteration method, Mises theorem.

    13) The eigenvalue problem of real symmetric matrices.

    14) The Householder transformation       .

    15) The eigenvalue problem for tridiagonal matrices, Sturm's theorem.

    16) The eigenvalue problem for nonsymmetric matrices.

    17) Transformation to Hessenberg form.

    18) QR transformation.

    19) Applications of the Courant-Fischer theorem.

    20) Lánczos method.

    21) Different kind of applications depending on time and interest, e.g. numerical solutions of differential equations, cluster analysis, PageRank.
