This course is a continuation of 640:501 from Fall 2006. The goal is to give an introduction to core topics in real and functional analysis that every professional mathematician should know.
Homework Assignments: Here is the list of homework problems.
Topics: The course will cover material from Chapters 4-8 of Folland's book:
- Topological Spaces
Basic properties, compact spaces, Stone-Weierstrass theorem - Introduction to Functional Analysis
Normed vector spaces, Hahn-Banach theorem, bounded linear transformations, Closed graph and Open mapping theorem, applications of Baire category theorem, Hilbert spaces, topological vector spaces, weak and weak* convergence - Lp Spaces
Integral inequalities, duality, bounded integral operators - Introduction to Fourier analysis
Schwartz space, convolutions, Fourier transform and Fourier series, Plancherel theorem, Poisson summation formula, Lp and pointwise convergence of Fourier series - Integration on Locally Compact Spaces
Continuous functions and Radon measures on locally compact spaces, dual of C(X), vague convergence of measures
Grading: There are weekly graded homework assignments, an in-class midterm exam (closed book) on March 7, and a final exam (closed book) on May 8.
