Autumn/Winter/Spring 2006-2007, Monday/Wednesday/Friday 11:30-12:20


In these three courses students are expected to learn the fundamental tools needed to work in the general field of analysis. This sequence will cover 3 main topics:

The following syllabus is tentative. Nevertheless it should give you a reasonable idea of what is ahead.
The course will be divided in 9 chapters as follows: <

  1. Basics: [R] Ch. 1, 2; [F] Ch. 0.
  2. Metric spaces: [R ] Ch. 7.
  3. Measures (Lebesgue measure): [R] Ch.3, 11; [F] Ch. 1.
  4. Integration (Lebesgue integral): [R] Ch. 4, 11; [F] Ch. 2.
  5. Differentiation and Integration: [R] Ch. 5, 11; [F] Ch. 3.
  6. Topological spaces: [R] Ch. 8, 9; [F] Ch. 4.
  7. Functional analysis: [R] Ch. 10; [F] Ch. 5.
  8. Lp spaces: [R] Ch. 6; [F] Ch. 6. <
  9. Selected topics: Radon measures ([F] Ch. 7); Elements of Fourier Analysis ([F] Ch. 8); Elements of Distribution Theory ([F] Ch. 9).
