Lesson
Lesson

### Gaussian Elimination

Solving systems of equations using Gaussian elimination and LU factorisation; matrix inversion using Gauss-Jordan elimination. A First Year university topic.

Solving systems of equations by reducing a matrix to row echelon form using row operations.

Determined, overdetermined and underdetermined systems; unique solutions, and infinite and empty solution sets.

Lesson

Inverting an $$n$$ by $$n$$ matrix by reducing to diagonal form using row operations.

Lesson

Solving systems of equations by resolving a square matrix into lower-triangular and upper-triangular factors, followed by back- and forward-substitution.

Lesson

### Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors

Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of square matrices. You may possible have met this if you've done Further Maths or the equivalent.
