Remarks :  This is a course for advanced students (licence or troisième cycle); these students are supposed to progress quickly. The presentation of the theory is based on concrete examples and is followed by exercises. The exercises are important and mostly to be made at home; they are corrected and commented on in class and constitute a good preparation for the examination.
