Course
Description:
This year-long, 6-credits
course is an introduction to mathematical analysis intended for students who have
received a standard training on single-variable calculus. We will study
analytical tools, topological and geometric concepts needed for multi-variable
calculus in a rigorous manner. The first semester will be focusing on series,
topology of R^n, and differential calculus. The
second semester will be focusing on implicit and inverse function theorems,
constraint extrema, and integral calculus. Those who
planning on taking more advanced courses about mathematical analysis, such as
real and functional analysis, should seriously consider taking the other
8-credits advanced calculus offered by the math department.
Registered students are
recommended to use the iLMS e-learning system (http://www.nthu.edu.tw/elearning.php),
where your teaching assistants will post contents of every lecture online. It
is only open to registered students. Contact your teaching assistants if you
have any question.
