MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS II

Course objectives

In this course the student's preparation of the first course of Mathematical Analysis will be completed, giving him the necessary tools concerning the Mathematical Analysis in multidimensional real spaces. Concepts of limit, continuity, derivative, differential and integral are extended to multidimensional spaces. Curves, surfaces and linear differential forms are introduced in the plane and the space. Particular attention is devoted to Gauss-Green, divergence and Stokes theorems in the plane and the space which permit to connect for example the curvilinear integral of a linear differential form to a surface integral of an appropriate function. Optimization problems are also solved, making use of Lagrange multipliers, thus of the implicit function theorem, in the search of minima and maxima for functions with constraints. Finally functional sequences and series are treated, expecially Taylor and Fourier series. The basic request of the course lies in the practical use of these mathematical tools, besides a deep understanding of the theoretical background. The aim of the course is to develop the logical and methodological abilities of the student to understand and correctly approach physical and engeneering problems in his following studies. The student will in fact be trained to understand a text and efficiently solve a problem by using the most suitable and effective tools. He is also expected to learn a methodological attitude.

Exam mode
The exam consists of a written test and, at discretion of the examiner or the student, an oral examination. The written part consists of three exercises and nine true/false questions whose answer needs to be explained. The exercises and true/false questions are basse on the course material. Each exercise is worth a maximum of 7 points. Each correct true/false answer without an explanation or with an incorrect explanation is worth 0,5 points, while each correct true/false answer with a correct explanation is worth 1 point. Each incorrect true/false answer is worth -0,5 points, and each unanswered true/false question is worth 0 points. A student with a score between 16 and 17,5 is always allowed to supplement their written exam during the oral exam to reach a passing grade.
