  • Mathematics 202: Introduction to Number Theory

    3.00 Credits
    Haverford College

    NA L.Butler An introduction to the classical theory of numbers. Topics include: primes and divisibility, congruences, the Chinese Remainder Theorem, quadratic reciprocity, sums of squares, Diophantine equations, continued fractions, approximation by rationals, Pell's equation. Time permitting, we will discuss arithmetic functions related tot the distribution of prime numbers. Emphasis will be placed on learning to generalize from examples to precise conjectures.

  • Mathematics 204: Differential Equations

    3.00 Credits
    Haverford College

    NA/QU J.Tecosky-Feldman Ordinary differential equations: the general theory of first-order equations, linear equations of higher order, qualitative analysis of nonlinear systems, and computational methods. Other topics, such as series solutions or an introduction to partial differential equations and Fourier series, may be included. Elements of linear algebra are developed as needed. Emphasis is on applications, especially on differential equations as mathematical models in the physical, biological and social sciences. Prerequisite: MATH 114 and either 115 or 116, or advanced placement. Offered occasionally.

  • Mathematics 210: Linear Optimization and Game Theory

    3.00 Credits
    Haverford College

    NA/QU (Cross-listed in Computer Science and Economics) L.Butler Covers in depth the mathematics of optimization problems with a finite number of variables subject to constraints. Applications of linear programming to the theory of matrix games and network flows are covered, as well as an introduction to nonlinear programming and hidden Markov models. Emphasis is on the structure of optimal solutions, algorithms to find them, and the underlying theory that explains both. This course is designed for students interested in computer science, economics, or mathematics. Prerequisite: MATH 121 and instructor consent, or MATH 215. Typically offered in alternate years.
