There will be homework due roughly every week. It will consist typically of a reading assignment (of the part of the book covered in class) and some problems. You are encouraged to collaborate on the homework, but what you write has to be your own understanding of how to do the problem. You must state what sources you have consulted, with whom you have collaborated, and from whom you have received help. No late homework will be accepted.
