Prerequisite knowledge and skills

A good understanding of the previous analysis, linear algebra and general topology courses is essential.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course consists of blackboard lessons, exercises sessions and a personal work.
During the lessons, the main theoretical results are introduced, established and illustrated with examples.
During the exercises sessions, the students are trained to solve by themselves various problems using the results considered in the lessons
The personal work consists of the preparation of a short paper presenting and establishing a result related to the course but not considered during the lessons.

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)

Face-to-face course.

Recommended or required readings
