Title of the course: Classification of quadrics in the affine and projective spaces
Instructor: Dr. Matteo Paganin
Institution: Sabancı University
Dates: 2-8 September 2024
Prerequisites: Linear Algebra
Level: Undergraduate, advance undergraduate, graduate
Abstract: In this course we will first introduce the projective space as a tool to better understand the difference between the classical conics in the plane and then we will use the full power of Linear Algebra to study and classify all quadrics over a field K, with a particular attention to the real numbers and the complex numbers.
