Course Goal / Objective
This module aims to provide an accessible review of the linear algebra from the text book to long after the class. Linear algebra is an essential part of the mathematical background required of econometricians. It presents a source for undergraduate students. In general it covers an introduction to linear algebra which will be found helpful to all readers.
Course Content
Matrices, matrix algebra, special types of matrices, elementary row and colomn operations, echelon form, rank of a matrix, elementary matrices, inverses, equivalent matrices, determinants, properties of determinants, cofactor and adjoint of a matrix, derivation of inverse matrix, systems of linear equations, solutions of linear equations systems, Cramers method, Gausss elimination method, vector spaces, subspaces, linear independence, bases and dimension, inner product spaces, eigen values, eigen vectors.
