Qualification Goals

The students shall

  • learn to recognize and assess the relevance of functional analytical methods for practical problems, e.g. from numerical analysis, , and to acquire the functional analytical 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. ''complex analysis and vector analysis''),
  • recognize the relationships of functional analysis to other areas of mathematics and other sciences,
  • practice mathematical working methods (development of mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training of the ability to abstract, proof techniques),
  • improve their oral communication skills in the exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during 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.


Applicability

The module can be attended at FB12 in study program(s)

  • B.Sc. Mathematics
  • B.Sc. Business Mathematics
  • M.Sc. Computer Science
  • M.Sc. Mathematics
  • M.Sc. Business Mathematics
  • LAaG Mathematics

When studying M.Sc. Mathematics, this module can be attended in the study area Specialization Modules in Mathematics.

The module can also be used in other study programs (export module).

Die Wahlmöglichkeit des Moduls ist dadurch beschränkt, dass es der Angewandten Mathematics zugeordnet ist.
