Course content

Real numbers and Euclidean spaces, topology in metric spaces, continuous functions, sequences and series of functions, uniform convergence, differentiable maps, the inverse function theorem, the implicit function theorem, the Riemann integral, Fubini`s theorem and change of variables.

Learning outcome

The course gives an introduction to the basics of mathematical analysis, both for further studies of mathematics and for applications.

Admission

Students who are admitted to study programmes at UiO must each semester register which courses and exams they wish to sign up for in Studentweb.
