Goals:
Students will write and revise solutions to exercises in analysis in order to gain facility with the basic tools of pure mathematics, drawing connections between its various fields.
Text (required):
Measure and Integral: An Introduction to Real
Analysis, Richard L. Wheeden and Antoni Zygmund, Dekker.
Assignments:
Homework: Expect daily homework
assignments. I plan to assign exercises from the
texts as well as assignments in which you read, understand and discuss
material from the two texts. The homework assignments will be
graded subject to the following rules:
- A problem
completed correctly and on time will receive 10 points.
- A problem
completed correctly and up to
one week late
will receive 8 points. (I really want
you to do the homework!!)
- An incorrect
problem (one which is either mathematically wrong or written poorly)
will receive partial credit and may be corrected and resubmitted within a
week from when it
is returned for up to 8 points. (In
fact, I really want
you to do the homework correctly!!
Even if you need help or more time.)

Attendance policy
I do not take role. A little Advice: You'll have a much easier time doing well on the homework and exams if you attend class. I choose what we do in class precisely to prepare you to do well on your homework and exams.
Add/Drop deadlines
September 17, 2007: last day to Drop without a W appearing on your transcript.
September 24, 2007: last day to Add.
November 21, 2007: last day to Drop. Drops after November 21, 2007 require the Dean (of the College of Natural Sciences) to sign, and are generally not approved, except in cases of serious accident or illness.
Disabilities
It is the responsibility of students with disabilities verified by the university to notify the instructor in advance if they would like to be accommodated.
Cheating/Plagiarism
Cheating and plagiarism are in violation of the California Administrative Code, Title 5, Section 41301. CSULB has adopted a specific policy with respect to the violations of this nature (see the Bulletin or Schedule of Classes). Any student in violation of this code and policy in any assignment or examination related to this course shall be subject to the options specified in the policy statement. This may result in the student receiving a failing grade in the course or, in certain circumstances, being expelled from the University.
