Grading: there will be one homework exercise set to be submitted by the 7th week, and one midterm test on the 12th week (theoretical questions and exercises), both for 50-50 points.  For the signature, you have to reach at least 20-20 points The midterm test can be repeated on  the 13th week. If you still do not  have the signature, a makeup is possible on  the 15th week. Based on your midterm points, I will give you a grade at the end of the semester. If this grade is 1 (fail)  or better, but you want to improve it, then you can sit for an oral exam in  the exam period. Here mainly theoretical questions (with proofs) are asked.

 

Consultations: in office hours and before the midterm test.
