Infinitesimal Analysis IV

Recommended Prerequisites

Real Analysis II, III; Linear Algebra and Analytic Geometry I, II.

Teaching Methods

Active participation of the students in the theoretical and tutorial classes. This may include presentation in class of part of the homework assigments.

Students' work is closely observed and frequently evaluated by the instructor. The student has access to the results of each evaluation and is encouraged to meet individually with the instructor to discuss his/her performance.

Learning Outcomes

A first contact with Integral Calculus of functions defined in Rn, culminating in the establishment of the four main theorems of Integral Calculus: Central theorem of curvilinear integral,Riemann-Green Theorem, Stokes theorem and Gauss Theorem. The skills to be developed include learning  the theoretical foundations of integral calculus in Rn; capacity of generalization and abstraction; capacity to pose problems and to translate them in mathematical language; calculation capacity; development of oral and written expression.
