Metodi didattici
Lectures on the blackboard.
Modalità di verifica e valutazione dell'apprendimento
Oral exams, which include also the solution of exercises. The list of exercises is presented to the students in advance and all the exercises were resolved during the lectures and are described in the lecture notes. The student should show the understanding of the main notions of the course and the capacity to do calculations, proofs and reasonings. After the solutions of the problem two other topics of the course are discussed.
