Text: Advanced Calculus, An Introduction to Analysis- Third Edition, by Watson Fulks, Wiley & Sons, New York, 1978.

Goals of the course:  

1) To obtain a deeper understanding of  multivariable calculus, including some linear algebra.

2)  To review and reinforce concepts and theorems  that you have already seen in Calc 3, as well as to introduce a number of new or related concepts pertaining to multivariable calculus.

3)  To develop skill at reading, constructing and writing proofs. You will be expected to write clean and rigorous arguments with correct logic and  grammar.  This will set the foundation for graduate level courses in mathematics and elsewhere, in particular, for Analysis and Topology.


Grading:

1) Homework (39%): Assignments worth 16 points each. Probably 12 assignments altogether, worth a total of 192 points.   Assignments will be due on Friday in class:  Jan. 31, Feb. 7, Feb. 14, Feb. 21, March 7, March 14, March 28, April 4, April 11, Aprial 25, May 2, May 9.
