Course Learning Outcomes
After successfully completing this course, students will be able to:
- define and explain key concepts in measure theory, including σ-algebras, measurable functions, and different types of measures.
- define general integral.
- apply major convergence theorems (Monotone Convergence Theorem, Fatou’s Lemma, Dominated Convergence Theorem) to analyze the behavior of sequences of functions.
- use product measures and apply Fubini’s and Tonelli’s Theorems in integration over product spaces.
- apply the Radon-Nikodym Theorem to decompose measures.
- apply the Lebesgue Differentiation Theorem in real analysis contexts.
- work with Lp spaces, including their norms, completeness, duality, and important inequalities (e.g., Hölder’s, Minkowski’s).
