Advanced Topics in Analysis KMA454

Introduction

Mathematical analysis is the branch of mathematics dealing with limits and related theories, such as differentiation, integration, measure, infinite series, and analytic functions.

This unit offers studies in Advanced Analysis suitable for Honours level. Topics offered may vary from year to year depending on the available staff and students’ interests. Examples of topics that could be considered as suitable may include
(1). The Four Theorems in Functional Analysis: Hanh Banach, Uniform Boundedness, Open Mapping and Closed Graph Theorems;
(2). Theory of Measure and Integration;
(3). Fourier Analysis;
(4). Areas in topology.

This unit is an optional unit for students enrolled in Honours Mathematics, Statistics, or Physics, or by permission of the Unit Coordinator.
