MAT 320: Introduction to Analysis

A careful study of the theory underlying topics in one-variable calculus, with an emphasis on those topics arising in high school calculus. The real number system. Limits of functions and sequences. Differentiations, integration, and the fundamental theorem. Infinite series. This course and MAT 319 meet together for the first 6 weeks of the semester. After the first midterm, the classes will split: students whose grade on the first midterm was higher than a certain cutoff can move to MAT 320 (or amy choose to stay in MAT319). Students whose grade was lower then the cutoff will stay in MAT 319.

• C or higher in MAT 200 or permission of instructor;
• C or higher in one of the following: MAT 203, 205, 211, 307, AMS 261, or A- or higher in MAT 127, 132, 142, or AMS 161

Homework sets will be typically assigned weekly and due on Thursdays in class. They will be posted on this web site. (NOT on blackboard site!) Late homework will not be accepted. However, grades for homework assignments may be dropped in cases of documented medical problems or similar difficulties.

There will be two in-class midterms; the first midterm will be on Th, 9/29. The date of the second midterm will be announced later.

Grades will be based on the following scheme: Homework -- 20%; Midterms -- 20% each; Final Exam 40%.
