Contents

  • Real numbers: Axioms and properties, completeness axiom and interval nesting, representation in computer,
  • Sequences and series: properties, limits and inheritance rules, convergence criteria, Landau symbols,
  • Functions: Limit values and continuity, intermediate value theorem, theorem of minimum and maximum, differentiability incl. affin-linear approximation, derivation rules, numerical differentiation, local extremes, integrability, integration rules, numerical integration, non-actual integrals, mean value theorems, main theorem of differential and integral calculus,
  • Function sequences and series: point by point and uniform convergence, power series, Taylor development

Qualification Goals

The students shall

  • acquire basic knowledge and skills in analysis, in particular an understanding of the concept of limit values for sequences, series, functions and power series,
  • Recognize connections to their own discipline,
  • practice mathematical and in particular analytical ways of thinking and working on concrete questions, also on technically motivated problems,
  • develop mathematical intuition and learn how to translate it into precise terms and formal justifications,
  • to train their abstraction skills,
  • 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 im Modul Grundlagen der Linearen Algebra vermittelt werden.

This page describes a module according to the latest valid module guide in Winter semester 2018/19. Most rules valid for a module are not covered by the examination regulations and can therefore be updated on a semesterly basis. The following versions are available in the online module guide:

The module guide contains all modules, independent of the current event offer. Please compare the current course catalogue in Marvin.
