Learning unit contents
This course represents the second part of the Analysis course, introducing the methods, concepts, and basic tools in analysis essential in physics.
The topics covered in the course are as follows:
- Primitives and ordinary differential equations
- Integral calculus: Riemann integral and integration on unbounded sets, integral of functions of several variables, parametric integrals
- Vector analysis: curves and surfaces, Green's theorem, Gauss's theorem, Stokes's theorem
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
At the end of the course, the student will have a strong understanding of the fundamental concepts of mathematical analysis and will be proficient in applying the corresponding calculation techniques. These skills can be implemented in both abstract contexts and for solving practical problems within the field of physical sciences.
The student will be able to use mathematical language to formulate, analyze, and solve original and simple problems, demonstrating discernment and rigor in the use of fundamental tools of mathematical analysis.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
The course builds upon the knowledge of the theory of functions of one or more variables and the mastery of corresponding calculus tools as developed in the course MATH0086-1 Analysis I, Part 1.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course consists of lectures and exercises sessions.
Theoretical concepts are introduced during the lectures, and important theoretical results are then derived to introduce and justify mathematical analysis tools.
Exercise sessions, supervised by teaching assistants, mainly focus on solving exercises related to the content of the theoretical course. They also provide additional information and illustrative examples of theoretical concepts.
These two activities complement each other, as mastery of the techniques developed during the exercise sessions relies on a solid understanding of the concepts presented during the lectures, and vice versa.
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
Blended learning
Additional information:
The regular course schedule is available online via Celcat. Some theoretical sessions could be completed independently - flipped classroom model.
Recommended or required readings
The course notes will be available on eCampus.
The slides used as well as the exercise lists will also be uploaded on eCampus.
Exam(s) in session
Any session
- In-person
written exam ( open-ended questions )
Additional information:
The exam is written and covers all the material taught in the course, including theoretical developments (statements and proofs of results, definitions, structured and reasoned arguments similar to those performed during the year) and exercise solving. A serious deficiency in either of the two parts will penalize the final grade.
