COURSE PREREQUISITE: Multivariate Calculus (272) and Mathematical Proofs (314)
TEXT : An Introduction to Analysis (3rd ed) by William Wade. Prentice Hall.
SYLLABUS : We assume students know the basic mechanics of calculus.
This course attempts to
develop a deep understanding of the concepts of calculus, including
continuity, differentiability, integrability,
infinite sequences and series. The first semester will focus
on one-dimensional theory, with an introduction
to multidimensional theory in chapter 8. The second semester
(Math 571) will focus on the remainder of the text.
ASSESSMENT : Homework : 45%
Two hour-exams: 30%
Final Exam (Dec 9, 8:00 am): 25%
Approximate grading scale: A (85%), B (70%), C (50%)
COURSE PLAN: You are responsbile for what is in the book (not just what
is mentioned in class),
and I will attempt to be your guide - helping you with details and
giving the “big picture”.
Before each class, read the next section to get an overview of what
will be discussed. After each
class, read the material again - this time study carefully the proofs.
I generally will not rewrite these
proofs on the board but instead will react to your questions about
particular difficult points.
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: You are responsible for making yourself aware
of and understanding
the policies and procedures in the Undergraduate (pp. 274-276) [Graduate
(pp. 26-28)] Catalog that
pertain to Academic Integrity. These policies include cheating, fabrication,
falsification and forgery,
multiple submission, plagiarism, complicity and computer misuse. If
there is reason to believe you
have been involved in academic dishonesty, you will be referred to
the Office of Student Conduct.
You will be given the opportunity to review the charge(s). If you believe
you are not responsible,
you will have the opportunity for a hearing. You should consult with
me if you are uncertain about
an issue of academic honesty prior to the submission of an assignment
or test.
NOVEMBER 1 : This is the last date a student can process an official
withdrawal from the course,
to avoid a possible E grade. Incompletes are rarely given, and
they are never given as a substitute
for a failing grade.
