MATH-467: Probabilistic methods in combinatoricsThe 'probabilistic method' is a fundamental tool in combinatorics. The basic idea is as follows: to prove that an object (for example, graph) with certain properties exists, it suffices to prove that
MATH-504: Integer optimisationThe course aims to introduce the basic concepts and results of integer optimization with special emphasis on algorithmic problems on lattices that have proved to be important in theoretical computer s
PHYS-325: Introduction to plasma physicsIntroduction à la physique des plasmas destinée à donner une vue globale des propriétés essentielles et uniques d'un plasma et à présenter les approches couramment utilisées pour modéliser son comport
MATH-189: MathematicsCe cours a pour but de donner les fondements de mathématiques nécessaires à l'architecte contemporain évoluant dans une école polytechnique.
BIO-341: Dynamical systems in biologyLife is non-linear. This course introduces dynamical systems as a technique for modelling simple biological processes. The emphasis is on the qualitative and numerical analysis of non-linear dynamical
ME-331: Solid mechanicsModel the behavior of elastic, viscoelastic, and inelastic solids both in the infinitesimal and finite-deformation regimes.
MATH-436: Homotopical algebraThis course will provide an introduction to model category theory, which is an abstract framework for generalizing homotopy theory beyond topological spaces and continuous maps. We will study numerous
ME-466: InstabilityThis course focuses on the physical mechanisms at the origin of the transition of a flow from laminar to turbulent using the hydrodynamic instability theory.
