1. Complex Numbers | 复数
Know the definition z = a + bi, where a, b are real and i² = −1. You must be confident with adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing complex numbers, especially using the complex conjugate to find the quotient.
掌握定义 z = a + bi,其中 a、b 为实数,i² = −1。你必须熟练掌握复数的加、减、乘、除运算,特别是利用共轭复数求商。
Represent complex numbers on an Argand diagram, compute modulus |z| = √(a² + b²) and argument arg(z), and express them in polar and exponential forms: z = |z| (cos θ + i sin θ) = |z| eiθ.
在 Argand 图上表示复数,计算模 |z| = √(a² + b²) 和辐角 arg(z),并用极坐标形式和指数形式表示:z = |z| (cos θ + i sin θ) = |z| eiθ。
Apply de Moivre’s theorem: (cos θ + i sin θ)ⁿ = cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ) to find powers and roots of complex numbers. Use it to derive trigonometric identities and solve equations such as zⁿ = k.
应用 de Moivre 定理:(cos θ + i sin θ)ⁿ = cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ) 求复数的幂和根。用它推导三角恒等式并解形如 zⁿ = k 的方程。
2. Roots of Polynomials | 多项式根的性质
Recall the relationships between roots and coefficients for quadratics, cubics and quartics. For a cubic ax³ + bx² + cx + d = 0 with roots α, β, γ, know that α + β + γ = −b/a, αβ + βγ + γα = c/a and αβγ = −d/a.
回忆二次、三次和四次方程根与系数的关系。对于三次方程 ax³ + bx² + cx + d = 0,其根为 α、β、γ,则有 α + β + γ = −b/a,αβ + βγ + γα = c/a,αβγ = −d/a。
Use the fact that complex roots of real polynomials occur in conjugate pairs to deduce unknown coefficients or form polynomials with given roots. Transform roots via substitutions like w = α + k or w = kα to find new equations.
利用实系数多项式复根成对出现这一事实,推出未知系数或构建具有给定根的多项式。通过代换如 w = α + k 或 w = kα 对根进行变换,从而求出新的方程。
3. Summation of Series | 级数求和
Memorise standard results: Σr = ½n(n+1), Σr² = ⅙n(n+1)(2n+1), Σr³ = ¼n²(n+1)². Use them to evaluate sums of polynomials, e.g., Σ(3r² − 2r + 4), by separating into simpler sums.
熟记标准结果:Σr = ½n(n+1),Σr² = ⅙n(n+1)(2n+1),Σr³ = ¼n²(n+1)²。利用它们计算多项式的和,例如 Σ(3r² − 2r + 4),只需拆分成更简单的求和。
Apply the method of differences to telescoping sums. Recognise expressions of the form 1/(r(r+1)) and rewrite using partial fractions to cancel terms. Be prepared to prove summation formulas by induction.

理解矩阵 M 如何将向量 (x, y) 映射为新向量。识别标准变换矩阵:关于坐标轴或直线 y = ±x 的反射、逆时针旋转 θ 角、沿坐标轴的伸缩以及剪切。
Combine transformations by multiplying matrices in the correct order (right to left). Find invariant points by solving Mx = x and invariant lines by solving M(x, y)T = λ(x, y)T for λ.

Prove and use hyperbolic identities, especially cosh² x − sinh² x = 1 and double-angle formulas. Solve equations involving hyperbolic functions, often by converting to exponentials or using identities.
证明并使用双曲恒等式,尤其要掌握 cosh² x − sinh² x = 1 和倍角公式。通过转化为指数形式或利用恒等式来解涉及双曲函数的方程。

用对数定义反双曲函数:arsinh x = ln(x + √(x² + 1)),arcosh x = ln(x + √(x² − 1))(x ≥ 1),artanh x = ½ ln((1+x)/(1−x))(|x|<1)。
7. Polar Coordinates | 极坐标
Switch between Cartesian (x, y) and polar (r, θ) using x = r cos θ, y = r sin θ and r² = x² + y². For curves given by r = f(θ), sketch typical shapes such as cardioids, roses, and circles with centre on the polar axis.
利用 x = r cos θ、y = r sin θ 以及 r² = x² + y² 在直角坐标和极坐标之间转换。对于给出的曲线 r = f(θ),能描绘典型形状,如心形线、玫瑰线和圆心在极轴上的圆。

For a linear first-order ODE of the form dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x), find the integrating factor I = exp(∫ P(x) dx) and multiply through to obtain d/dx (Iy) = I Q(x). Then integrate and solve for y.

9. Second Order Differential Equations | 二阶微分方程
Solve homogeneous second-order linear ODEs a d²y/dx² + b dy/dx + c y = 0 by forming the auxiliary equation am² + bm + c = 0. Write the general solution based on distinct real roots, repeated roots, or complex roots.

For non-homogeneous equations, find the particular integral using the method of undetermined coefficients. Try a form similar to the right-hand side f(x): polynomial of degree n, exponential kepx, or combination sin/cos. The general solution is the sum of the complementary function and the particular integral.
对于非齐次方程,使用待定系数法求特解。根据右端 f(x) 的形式设定特解形式:n 次多项式、指数函数 kepx 或正余弦组合。通解为余函数与特解之和。
10. Proof by Induction | 数学归纳法
Structure a proof clearly: state the proposition P(n), verify the base case (usually n = 1), assume P(k) is true, and prove that P(k+1) holds, then conclude. Common applications include summation formulas, divisibility, inequalities, and matrix powers.
清晰组织证明:陈述命题 P(n),验证基本情形(通常 n = 1),假设 P(k) 成立,证明 P(k+1) 成立,最后总结陈述。常见应用包括求和公式、可除性问题、不等式以及矩阵的幂。
For divisibility, express P(k+1) in terms of P(k) so that the inductive hypothesis can be used. For inequalities, carefully manipulate the k+1 expression to fit the assumed inequality. Practice writing coherent, logical steps without skipping algebra.
关于整除性,应将 P(k+1) 表示成能用上 P(k) 的形式。对于不等式,要小心处理 k+1 时的表达式以适配假设的不等式。多加练习,写出连贯、逻辑清晰的步骤,不跳过代数变形。
Be ready to prove recurrences, such as un+1 = f(un), and to show that a closed form matches the recurrence. This often appears in sequences defined recursively and matrix power problems.
准备好证明递推关系,
