Teaching 12/13

Michælmas Term 12/13

Mathematics for Scientists

MA1S11
JF Science

See the course webpage for details and tutorials. Here’s a mirror of the tutorials and their solutions.

Mathematical Methods (Calculus)

MA1M01
JF Science

See Nicolas Garron’s webpage for details. The official course descriptor has information about continuous assessment, etc. For the moment, copies of the tutorials are here. Rupert Levene’s MA1M01 notes from two years ago are here, along with tutorials and solutions to past exam papers.

If you’re struggling with the course, apparently Khan Academy is quite good. Wolfram Alpha might be helpful too — it has step-by-step solutions for integrals, differential equations and so on.

Hilary Term 12/13

Advanced Calculus

MA1132
JF Mathematics & TP

See Petronela Radu’s course webpage and the official course descriptor for details. Richard Timoney has some fairly comprehensive notes from 11/12.

JF Mathematics & SF TP

The course webpage has assignments and information about grading. The final grade is max(exam, 0.9 × exam + 0.1 × tutorials).

Here is an intuitive explanation of orbits and stabilisers.
