Subject Outline
The handbook entry for this course is at https://app.portal.unimelb.edu.au/CSCApplication/view/2009/620-295. The subject overview that one finds there:
This subject introduces the field of mathematical analysis both with a careful theoretical framework and its application in numerical approximation. A review of number systems; the fundamentals of topology of the real line; continuity and differentiability of functions of one and several variables; sequences and series including the concepts of convergence and divergence, absolute and conditional, and tests for convergence; Taylor’s theorem and series representation of elementary functions with application to Fourier series. The subject will introduce methods of proof such as induction and also introduce the use of rigorous numerical approximations.
Topics include the definition of limits, lim sup, lim inf; Rolle's Theorem, Mean Value Theorem, Intermediate Value Theorem, monotonicity, boundedness, and the definition of the Riemann integral.
Main Topics
- Numbers: Integers, rationals, reals, complexes
- The binomial theorem and the exponential function
- Sequences and Series
- sets and functions: relations and cardinality
- operations, fields, orders and ordered fields
- topological spaces, continuity, and the limit definition of continuity
- differentiation and integration
