Lectures: TR, 10:00am-12:20pm, 494 164B

Office Hours: I have scheduled Wed. 12:30-1:30 as a regular office hour for this class. I am also happy to schedule office hours by appointment as needed. If needed, we can use the last 15 or so minutes of class as additional office hours for any short questions you may have.
[I have also scheduled office hours for my other classes at Mon. 9-noon and Wed. 9-noon. You are welcome to drop by any of those times; if the office hours are not too busy, I can meet with you then.]

Textbook: Advanced Calculus of Several Variables, C.H. Edwards, Jr.
Other references include Multidimensional Real Analysis II: Integration by Duistermaat and Kolk; Mathematical Analysis by Apostol; and Calculus on Manifolds by Spivak.

Course Description: This is the second part of a two-quarter sequence on Multidimensional Analysis. This course focuses on integration, and will cover most of Chapters IV and V in your textbook. We will begin, however, with a detailed review of integration in one variable before generalizing to multiple dimensions. After this, the course will present the main ideas of multiple integration: Volume and the n-dimensional integral, Riemann sums, iterated integrals and Fubini's theorem, the change of variables theorem, and improper integrals. The second part of the course will cover differential forms and the famous integral theorems of multivariate calculus: Green's theorem, the divergence theorem, and Stokes' theorem.

Homework: There will be homework problems due in lecture; please check the course website to download problem sets. Discussion of the course and lecture material is highly encouraged. Although discussion of the homework and collaboration is usually allowed, all homework problems turned in must be your own work and reflect your own understanding of the problems. Occasionally, there may be a problem set on which collaboration is not allowed.

Attendance and Partcipation: Attendance at all lectures is required. During the last half hour of class (before the office hours), students will be expected to discuss and occasionally present homework problems.

Evaluation: Students will be evaluated according to the following criteria: Regular attendance, number of assignments completed and the quality of the assignments, understanding of the mathematical material, participation in class, development of oral presentation and proof-writing skills, and effort.
