LEC # | TOPICS | READINGS |
---|---|---|
1 | Sets, ordered sets, countable sets | pp. 3–6, and 24–30; Theorem 2.14 makes good reading even though it wasn't covered in class. |
2 | Fields, ordered fields, least upper bounds, the real numbers | pp. 5–11 |
3 | The Archimedean principle; decimal expansion; intersections of closed intervals; complex numbers, Cauchy-Schwarz |
pp. 38–9 (Theorem 2.38 only), 41 (Corollary to Theorem 2.43 only), and 12–6 Independent Reading:pp. 16–7 (Euclidean spaces) |
4 | Metric spaces, ball neighborhoods, open subsets | pp. 30–4 |
5 | Open subsets, limit points, closed subsets, dense subsets | pp. 34–46 |
6 | Compact subsets of metric spaces | pp. 36–8, and Problem 26 from p. 45 |
7 | Limit points and compactness; compactness of closed bounded subsets in Euclidean space | pp. 38–40 |
8 | Convergent sequences in metric spaces; Cauchy sequences, completeness; Cauchy's theorem | pp. 47–9, and 51 (bottom of the page) –55 |
9 | Subsequential limits, lim sup and lim inf, series | pp. 55–7, and 61–3 |
10 | Absolute convergence, product of series | pp. 71–4, and 78 |
11 | Power series, convergence radius; the exponential function, sine and cosine | pp. 69–70 plus some additional material from Chapter 8 (notably pages 178–80 on the exponential series, but covered only partially). |
12 | Continuous maps between metric spaces; images of compact subsets; continuity of inverse maps | pp. 83–9 |

23 | Review of exponential, log, sine, cosine; eit= cos(t) + isin(t) | pp. 178–84 |
24 | Review of series, Fourier series |
