Spaces: An Introduction to Real Analysis
Share this pageTom L. Lindstrøm
Spaces is a modern introduction to real analysis at the advanced
undergraduate level. It is forward-looking in the sense that it first
and foremost aims to provide students with the concepts and techniques
they need in order to follow more advanced courses in mathematical
analysis and neighboring fields. The only prerequisites are a solid
understanding of calculus and linear algebra. Two introductory
chapters will help students with the transition from computation-based
calculus to theory-based analysis.
The main topics covered are metric
spaces, spaces of continuous functions, normed spaces, differentiation
in normed spaces, measure and integration theory, and Fourier
series. Although some of the topics are more advanced than what is
usually found in books of this level, care is taken to present the
material in a way that is suitable for the intended audience: concepts
are carefully introduced and motivated, and proofs are presented in
full detail. Applications to differential equations and Fourier
analysis are used to illustrate the power of the theory, and exercises
of all levels from routine to real challenges help students develop
their skills and understanding. The text has been tested in classes at
the University of Oslo over a number of years.
Readership
Undergraduate and graduate students interested in real analysis.
Reviews & Endorsements
[T]he presentation is done in a way to make the book eminently readable by undergraduate students...I think that reading 'Spaces' or taking a course based on the text would serve very well as a bridge between undergraduate level and modern graduate level mathematics.
