MATH-410: Riemann surfacesThis course is an introduction to the theory of Riemann surfaces. Riemann surfaces naturally appear is mathematics in many different ways: as a result of analytic continuation, as quotients of complex domains under discontinuous group actions, as algebraic ...
MATH-323: Topology III - HomologyHomology is one of the most important tools to study topological spaces and it plays an important role in many fields of mathematics. The aim of this course is to introduce this notion, understand its properties and learn how to compute it. There will be m ...
MATH-482: Number theory I.a - Algebraic number theoryAlgebraic number theory is the study of the properties of solutions of polynomial equations with integral coefficients; Starting with concrete problems, we then introduce more general notions like algebraic number fields, algebraic integers, units, ideal c ...
MATH-317: Algebra V - Galois theoryGalois theory lies at the interface of Field Theory and Group Theory. It aims to describe the algebraic symmetries of fields. We will focus on Galois theory for finite field extensions and some applications. ...
MATH-328: Algebraic geometry I - CurvesAlgebraic geometry is the common language for many branches of modern research in mathematics. This course gives an introduction to this field by studying algebraic curves and their intersection theory. ...
COM-401: Cryptography and securityThis course introduces the basics of cryptography. We review several types of cryptographic primitives, when it is safe to use them and how to select the appropriate security parameters. We detail how they work and sketch how they can be implemented. ...
CS-476: Embedded system designHardware-software co-design is a well known concept in embedded system design.It is also a concept required in designing FPGA-accelerators in data-centers.This course teaches how to transform algorithms in smart hardware-software solutions. ...
PHYS-202: Mécanique analytique (pour SPH)Ce cours propose une introduction à la mécanique analytique. Il introduit les formalismes lagrangien et hamiltonien, en insistant sur leur capacité à simplifier la description des systèmes contraints, des symétries et des lois de conservation. Il présente ...
PHYS-423: Plasma IFollowing an introduction of the main plasma properties, the fundamental concepts of the fluid and kinetic theory of plasmas are introduced. Applications concerning laboratory, space, and astrophysical plasmas are discussed throughout the course. ...
MATH-225: Topologie II - groupes fondamentauxOn étudie des notions de topologie générale: unions et quotients d'espaces topologiques; on approfondit les notions de revêtements et de groupe fondamental,et d'attachements de cellules et on démontre le Théorème de Seifert-van Kampen. Des exemples de surf ...
ME-427: Networked control systemsThis course offers an introduction to control systems using communication networks for interfacing sensors, actuators, controllers, and processes. Challenges due to network non-idealities and opportunities offered by communication will be analyzed. ...
MATH-329: Continuous optimizationThis course introduces students to continuous, nonlinear optimization. We study the theory of optimization with continuous variables (with full proofs), and we analyze and implement important algorithms to solve constrained and unconstrained problems. ...
