Global Arc

Study of functions of a complex variable, with emphasis on interrelations with other parts of mathematics. Cauchy's theorems, singularities, contour integration, power series, infinite products. The gamma and zeta functions and the prime number theorem. Elliptic functions, theta functions, Jacobi's triple product and combinatorics. An overall view of Special Functions via the hypergeometric series. This course is the second semester of a four-semester sequence, but may be taken independently of the other semesters.

An applied algebra course that integrates the basics of theory and modern applications for students in MAT, APC, PHY, CHE, COS, ELE. This course is intended for students who have taken a semester of linear algebra and who have an interest in a course that treats the structures, properties and application of groups, rings, and fields. Applications and algorithmic aspects of algebra will be emphasized throughout.

This course will cover the basics of symmetry and group theory, with applications. Topics include the fundamental theorem of finitely generated abelian groups, Sylow theorems, group actions, and the representation theory of finite groups, rings and modules.

This course will teach some of the fundamental concepts needed to succeed in the calculus sequence, and develop students' mathematical writing and presentation skills. It is comprised of lectures, precepts, and writing workshops.Written work will be assigned weekly, and a final project will be due at the end of the summer.

MAT 210 will survey the main ideas of calculus in a single variable incorporating an introduction to formal mathematical proofs. The course will place equal emphasis on theory (how to construct formal mathematical definitions and rigorous, logical proofs) and on practice (concrete computational examples involving integration and infinite sequences and series). This course provides a more theoretical foundation in single variable calculus than MAT104, intended to prepare students better for a first course in real analysis (MAT215), but it covers all the computational tools needed to continue to multivariable calculus (MAT201 or MAT203).
