Course Objectives

This course is designed to provide fundamental concepts of analysis, including classical theory of functions of a real variable, differentiation and integration of real functions, as well as some fundamental topics in topology of Euclidean space. Emphasis will be placed on the understanding of the proofs of the major theorems in calculus courses.  The aim also is to provide the  background  in analysis  necessary for the student to take other advanced courses in metric spaces and topology. 


Course Content

Real Number System. Sequences in R. Definitions of Limit and Continuity, Differentiability theorems, Integrability theorems in R. Infinite series of real numbers and infinite series of functions. Euclidean Spaces, topology of R^n. Convergence, differentiability and integrability on R^n.


Course Learning Outcomes

At the end of the course students are expected to:

  • The students will learn the basic results in the field and get experience in standard methods of real analysis.
  • The students will get acquainted with the basic notions of the real number system (axioms, convergence, limit superior/inferior of real sequences, etc.).
  •  The student will learn the proofs of the theorems in Calculus courses.
  • The student will be able to demonstrate competence with topology of Euclidean space, like determining a subset of Euclidean space open/closed or neither.
  • The student will be able to demonstrate competence with doing proofs by using basic results in real anaysis.
