Text: Vector Calculus, Linear
Algebra, and
Differential Forms, 2nd edition, by J. H. Hubbard &
B. B. Hubbard, Prentice Hall.
Description: This is a rigorous course
in Calculus of several variables. We will analyze techniques
to study functions whose domains are subsets of Rn,
essential tools in the pursuit of advanced level mathematics, and many
sciences.
We shall begin with the geometric description of Rn, and
discuss matrices as linear transformations. We will develop criteria
for differentiability of functions, solve basic linear equations,
relate the dimensions of kernel and images of linear transformations,
and discuss the inverse and implicit function theorems. Then, we will
proceed with the definition
and study of higher order derivatives of functions, quadratic forms,
integration,
and submanifolds of Rn, the latter subject emphasizing the
case of
curves and surfaces. The course will end with a description of forms
and the
exterior differentiation operator, the statement of Stokes' Theorem and
some of its applications.
Homework: There will be homework
assignments throughout the semester, approximately weekly. No late
homework will be accepted.
Examinations: There will be a midterm
and
a final examination, as indicated below. The time of these exams is
given now so that you can resolve
any possible conflict before the course starts. There will be no makeup
exams due to conflicts.

FINAL EXAM REVIEW: Exam
Review
This review sheet is good for the midterm as well. Go over
everything up to and including Newton's method. Stop before the
contraction lemma.
Grading: The homework assignments, the
midterm,
and the final examination will count for 20%, 30%, and 50% of your
final
grade, respectively.
