Mathematics 35, Winter 2007
Professor: Vladimir Chernov
ORC Course
Description: This course introduces the basic concepts of
real-variable theory. Topics include real numbers and cardinality of sets, sequences
and series of real numbers, metric spaces, continuous functions, integration
theory, sequences and series of functions, and polynomial approximation. Some
applications of the theory may be presented. Mathematics 63 presents similar
material, but from a more sophisticated point of view. This course may not serve as an adequate
prerequisite for either Mathematics 73 or 83. Students who contemplate taking
one of these two advanced courses should consider taking Mathematics 63 instead
of this course. Prerequisite: Mathematics 13 and permission of the
instructor, or Mathematics 22. Dist: QDS.
