1 Outline of The Course

This document outlines the topics that will be covered in a course on dynamical systems, differential equations, and linear algebra. The course will cover exponentiation of matrices, canonical forms of 2x2 matrices, linear systems of the form x0=Ax, matrix differential equations of the form X0=AX, and properties of nonlinear systems like local existence and uniqueness of solutions. Key concepts that will be studied include eigen values, vector fields, one-parameter groups of motions, Jordan canonical form, and algorithms for finding the exponential of matrices.
