Textbooks

The class mainly follows

Lecture Notes

Abhik Pal wrote very nice class notes in LaTex (thank you very much!):

These will be continuously updated and extended.

Grading

The final grade is weighted as follows: Homework: 20%, Midterm: 30%, Final: 50%

Exams

There will be two exams, a midterm and a final. More details will be announced. Note that this class uses gradescope for grading exams, see here for more information.

Midterm Exam: Mon, Mar. 19, 2018, Lecture Hall Research I, 9:45 - 11:00

The exam begins at 9:45 sharp, so please come a few minutes earlier to be seated at 9:45. The midterm is about all material up to the Mar. 5 session. You only need to bring a pen, no calculators or notes! Please be aware of the University policy regarding missing exams: Policies for Undergraduate Studies. In particular, in case you are missing an exam due to illness (only with doctor's note) or an emergency, you have to notify me (by email) before the beginning of the exam!

Final Exam: Tue, May 29, 2018, IRC conference hall, 16:00-18:00

The exam begins at 16:00 sharp, so please come a few minutes earlier to be seated at 16:00. The final exam is about all material of the class, with an emphasis on the second half. You only need to bring a pen, no calculators or notes! Please be aware of the University policy regarding missing exams: Policies for Undergraduate Studies. In particular, in case you are missing an exam due to illness (only with doctor's note) or an emergency, you have to notify me (by email) before the beginning of the exam!

Homework Sheets

Each week on Tuesday (with exceptions) there will be a homework assignment. These are an integral part of the coursework and working on the exercise sheets consistently is the best preparation for the exams. Note that

Homework Sheets are to be handed in individually at the beginning of class. Alternatively, they can be deposited in a mailbox at the main entrance of Research I at some point before class on Tuesday (right next to the entrance there is a mailbox labeled "Analysis II"). No late hand ins except with a doctor's note that proves you were sick several days during the time you had working on the homework sheet!
