3Blue1Brown Series — Episode Guide
Essence of linear algebra
- E1: Vectors, what even are they? (2016-08-06) — Kicking off the linear algebra lessons, let's make sure we're all on the same page about how specifically to think about vectors in this context.
- E2: Linear combinations, span, and basis vectors (2016-08-07) — The fundamental vector concepts of span, linear combinations, linear dependence, and bases all center on one surprisingly important operation: Scaling several vectors and adding th
- E3: Linear transformations and matrices (2016-08-07) — Matrices can be thought of as transforming space, and understanding how this work is crucial for understanding many other ideas that follow in linear algebra.
- E4: Matrix multiplication as composition (2016-08-09) — Multiplying two matrices represents applying one transformation after another. Many facts about matrix multiplication become much clearer once you digest this fact.
- E5: Three-dimensional linear transformations (2016-08-10) — What do 3d linear transformations look like? Having talked about the relationship between matrices and transformations in the last two videos, this one extends those same concepts
- E6: The determinant (2016-08-11) — The determinant of a linear transformation measures how much areas/volumes change during the transformation.
- E7: Inverse matrices, column space and null space (2016-08-16) — How to think about linear systems of equations geometrically. The focus here is on gaining an intuition for the concepts of inverse matrices, column space, rank and null space, bu
- E8: Nonsquare matrices as transformations between dimensions (2016-08-16) — Because people asked, this is a video briefly showing the geometric interpretation of non-square matrices as linear transformations that go between dimensions.
- E9: Dot products and duality (2016-08-24) — Dot products are a nice geometric tool for understanding projection. But now that we know about linear transformations, we can get a deeper feel for what's going on with the dot p
- E10: Cross products (2016-09-01) — This covers the main geometric intuition behind the 2d and 3d cross products.
- E11: Cross products in the light of linear transformations (2016-09-03) — For anyone who wants to understand the cross product more deeply, this video shows how it relates to a certain linear transformation via duality. This perspective gives a very ele
- E12: Cramer's rule, explained geometrically (2019-03-17) — This rule seems random to many students, but it has a beautiful reason for being true.
- E13: Change of basis (2016-09-11) — How do you translate back and forth between coordinate systems that use different basis vectors?
- E14: Eigenvectors and eigenvalues (2016-09-15) — A visual understanding of eigenvectors, eigenvalues, and the usefulness of an eigenbasis.
- E15: A quick trick for computing eigenvalues (2021-05-07) — How to write the eigenvalues of a 2×2 matrix just by looking at it.
- E16: Abstract vector spaces (2016-09-24) — This is really the reason linear algebra is so powerful.
Essence of calculus
- E1: Essence of calculus (2017-04-28) — In this first video of the series, we see how unraveling the nuances of a simple geometry question can lead to integrals, derivatives, and the fundamental theorem of calculus.
- E2: The paradox of the derivative (2017-04-29) — Derivatives center on the idea of change in an instant, but change happens across time while an instant consists of just one moment. How does that work?
- E3: Derivative formulas through geometry (2017-04-30) — A few derivative formulas, such as the power rule and the derivative of sine, demonstrated with geometric intuition.
- E4: Visualizing the chain rule and product rule (2017-05-01) — A visual explanation of what the chain rule and product rule are, and why they are true.
- E5: What's so special about Euler's number e? (2017-05-02) — What is e? And why are exponentials proportional to their own derivatives?
- E6: Implicit differentiation, what's going on here? (2017-05-03) — Implicit differentiation can feel weird, but what's going on makes much more sense once you view each side of the equation as a two-variable function, f(x, y).
- E7: Limits, L'Hopital's rule, and epsilon delta definitions (2017-05-04) — Formal derivatives, the epsilon-delta definition, and why L'Hôpital's rule works.
- E8: Integration and the fundamental theorem of calculus (2017-05-05) — What is an integral? How do you think about it?
- E9: What does area have to do with slope? (2017-05-06) — Integrals are used to find the average of a continuous variable, and this can offer a perspective on why integrals and derivatives are inverses, distinct from the one shown in the
- E10: Higher order derivatives (2017-05-07) — A very quick primer on the second derivative, third derivative, etc.
- E11: Taylor series (2017-05-07) — Taylor polynomials are incredibly powerful for approximations, and Taylor series can give new ways to express functions.
- E12: What they won't teach you in calculus (2018-05-19) — A visual for derivatives which generalizes more nicely to topics beyond calculus.
Neural networks
- E1: But what is a Neural Network? (2017-10-05) — Introduction to neural networks.
- E2: Gradient descent, how neural networks learn (2017-10-16) — The goal of this video is to introduce the idea of gradient descent and to analyze a specific network.
- E3: What is backpropagation really doing? (2017-11-03) — What's actually happening to a neural network as it learns?
- E4: Backpropagation calculus (2017-11-03) — This one is a bit more symbol heavy, and that's actually the point. The goal here is to represent in somewhat more formal terms the intuition for how backpropagation works in part
Differential equations
- E1: Overview of differential equations (2019-03-31) — How do you study what cannot be solved?
- E2: But what is a partial differential equation? (2019-04-21) — The heat equation, as an introductory PDE.
- E3: Solving the heat equation (2019-06-16) — Boundary conditions, and setup for how Fourier series are useful.
- E4: But what is a Fourier series? (2019-06-30) — Fourier series, from the heat equation to sines to cycles.
- E5: Understanding e to the i pi in 3.14 minutes (2019-07-07) — Euler's formula intuition from relating velocities to positions.
- E6: How (and why) to raise e to the power of a matrix (2021-04-01) — General exponentials, love, Schrödinger, and more.
