Specific course objectives
The course aims to introduce some of the main methods of mathematical analysis, and to provide students with useful operative tools for applications to signal theory and optimization problems. Main objectives are: i) lead the students to easily use the most important functions of complex variable and provide the basic knowledge of the related theory, ii) introduce the concept of convergence of sequences and series of functions and present the fundamental results about Fourier series, Fourier transform and Laplace transform iii) illustrate some techniques and applications of these transformations to simple differential problems.
