and the theory of extension fields. Topics include Gaussian
integers, Galois groups, and the fundamental theorem of
Galois theory. Applications include the impossibility of angletrisection
and the general insolvability of fifth- and higherdegree
polynomials. Other topics are covered as time permits.
Prereq. MTH U371.

MTH U581 Statistics and Stochastic Processes 4 SH
Continues topics introduced in MTH U481. The first part of
the course covers classical procedures of statistics including the
t-test, linear regression, and the chi- square test . The second
part provides an introduction to stochastic processes with
emphasis on Markov chains, random walks, and Brownian
motion, with applications to modeling and finance. Prereq.
MTH U481.

MTH U585 Introduction to Actuarial Math 4 SH
Introduces basic aspects of life contingencies. The theory is
illustrated by worked examples and reinforced through
numerous exercises. Prepares students to take the relevant
actuarial exam. Prereq. MTH U481 is recommended.

MTH U606 Mathematical and Computational Methods
for Physics 4 SH

Covers advanced mathematical methods topics that are
commonly used in the physical sciences, such as complex
calculus, Fourier transforms, special functions, and the
principles of variational calculus. Applies these methods to
computational simulation and modeling exercises. Introduces
basic computational techniques and numerical analysis, such
as Newton’s method, Monte Carlo integration, gradient
descent, and least squares regression. Uses a simple
programming language, such as MATLAB, for the exercises.
Same as PHY U606. Prereq. PHY U303, MTH U341, and
MTH U343 or MTH U345.

MTH U681 Probability and Risks 4 SH
Reviews main probability and statistics concepts from the point
of view of decision risks in actuarial and biomedical contexts,
including applications of normal approximation for evaluating
statistical risks. Also examines new topics, such as distribution
of extreme values and nonparametric statistics with examples.
May be especially useful for students preparing for the first
actuarial exam on probability and statistics. Prereq. MTH U481.

MTH U682 Theory of Interest and Basics of Life Insurance 4 SH
Reviews basic financial instruments in the presence of interest
rates, including the measurement of interest and problems in
interest ( equations of value , basic and more general annuities,
yield rates, amortization schedules, bonds and other securities).
Examines numerous practical applications. Also introduces
problems of life insurance with examples. May be especially
useful for students preparing for the second actuarial exam on
theory of interest. Prereq. MTH U481.
