This study of the integers includes but is not limited to: primes and their distribution, divisibility and congruences, quadratic reciprocity, special numerical functions such as Euler's one-function, and Diophantine equations.Students consider the influence number theory has had on the development of algebra and the interplay between the two.(Prerequisite: MA 231 or permission of the department chair) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Topics in this course include convex sets, extreme points, theoretical basis of the simplex method for linear programming, the simplex computational procedure, duality theory, and sensitivity analysis.The course also covers the transportation problem and network applications as time permits.(Prerequisites: MA 235 and MA 272, or permission of the department chair) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores what computers can and can't do, although it does not require any background in computer science or programming.Topics include finite state machines, push-down automata, Turing machines and recursive functions; mechanisms for formal languages, such as regular grammars, context-free grammars, context-sensitive grammars; and decidable versus undecidable problems.Also listed as CS 342.(Prerequisite: MA 231 or permission of the department chair) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Topics in this course include counting techniques; axiomatic probability theory; discrete and continuous sample spaces; random variables, cumulative distribution functions, probability density and mass functions; joint distributions; expected value and moments; common distributions like the normal, binomial, and Poisson distributions; and limit laws.(Prerequisites: MA 231 or ME 241 and MA 227 or MA 271, or permission of the department chair) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers transformations of random variables; statistical application of probability; theory of sampling and the Central Limit Theorem; variances of sums and averages; estimation and hypothesis testing; and least squares, curve-fitting, and regression.(Prerequisite: MA 351 or permission of the department chair) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This course investigates three topics in greater depth than can be done in the first linear or abstract algebra course.Topics may include canonical forms for matrices, metric linear algebra, ideal theory, finite non-abelian groups, and Galois theory.The course typically includes one linear and one abstract algebra topic.(Prerequisite: MA 334 or permission of the department chair) Three credits.
