The three core graduate mathematics courses normally taken in the first semester are:
- 640:501 Theory of Functions of a Real Variable I.
Text: Measure and Integral, R. Wheeden and A. Zygmund. - 640:551 Abstract Algebra I.
Text: Nathan Jacobson, Basic Algebra, Volumes 1 and 2, second edition.
Important Note These volumes seem to be out of print. Copies are available from various used book websites (e.g. addall.com . Please look for the book well before the semester begins. If you have trouble finding the books, please send an email addressed to BOTH grad-director@math.rutgers.edu and Professor Lepowsky (lepowsky@math.rutgers.edu). -
