Qualification Goals

The students should

  • learn to recognize and appreciate the relevance of functional analytic methods to practical problems, such as those in numerics, and acquire the functional analytic tools to solve these problems,
  • learn how methods of linear algebra, analysis and topology interact,
  • re-evaluate knowledge from the basic modules and some advanced modules (e.g., "Function Theory and Vector Analysis"),
  • recognize the relationships of functional analysis to other areas of mathematics and to other sciences.
  • practice mathematical working methods (developing mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training the ability to abstract, reasoning)
  • improve their oral communication skills in exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and in discussion.

Prerequisites

Translation is missing. Here is the German original:

Keine. Empfohlen werden die Kompetenzen, die in den Basismodulen vermittelt werden und Kenntnisse der allgemeinen Integrationstheorie aus Maß- und Integrationstheorie oder Funktionentheorie und Vektoranalysis.
