Course description: In this course we will give a rigorous treatment of the topology of Rn, and of the differential
and integral calculus of functions from Rn to Rm. Some of the important results we will prove in detail are:
the Bolzano-Weirstrass Theorem, the Heine-Borel Theorem, the characterization of differentiability in terms of
the existence and continuity of all partial derivatives, the inverse and implicit function theorems, the rigorous
definition of Riemann integration, Fubini’s Theorem, and the change of variables theorem.
Prerequisites: ThecourseprerequisitesareMath146[LinearAlgebra1(AdvancedLevel)]andMath148[Calculus
2 (Advanced Level)]. This course is for Honours Mathematics students only. You are expected to have had previous
exposure to and be comfortable with rigourous mathematical proofs. We will cover a very large amount of
difficult material at a very fast pace.
Brief description of topics: The topology of Rn: completeness, open sets, closed sets, connectedness, com-
pactness, continuity, uniform continuity. Differential calculus of multivariable functions: partial derivatives, differ-
entiability, chain rule, Taylor’s theorem, extreme value problems. Local properties of continuously differentiable
functions: open mapping theorem, inverse and implicit function theorems. Riemann integration: Jordan content,
integrability criteria, Fubini’s theorem, change of variables theorem.

Marking scheme
Your course mark will be determined as follows:
• Assignments: 30% (twelve assignments, one every week, worth 2.5% each)
• Midterm test: 15% (Tuesday 18 October 2022, 4:30pm–6:20pm, location TBD)
• FINAL EXAM: 55% (date and time TBD)
You may use calculators/computers to do the assignments, but you will not be permitted to use them for the
midterm or the final exam. Please note that you are strongly encouraged to work together with your classmates on
the assignment problems, but you must write up and turn in your own solutions to the problems. The assignments
are an integral part of your evaluation in this course and I encourage everyone to take them very seriously. I will
not be sympathetic to requests for leniency after the exam if you have not done the assignments. There is NO
possibility to base your entire course mark on the final exam. This course will cover a large amount of
difficult material at a fast pace. If you do not work hard in this course from day one, you will not do well.
There will be no opportunity for a make-up midterm test. A student who misses the midterm test without a valid,
acceptable excuse (accompanied by documented proof, such as a medical note) will receive a score of zero on the
test. Students who miss the midterm for valid reasons will have the 15 points missed transferred to the final exam.
Assignment due dates:
• Assignment 01 due Tuesday, September 13 • Assignment 07 due Tuesday, November 1
• Assignment 02 due Tuesday, September 20 • Assignment 08 due Tuesday, November 8
• Assignment 03 due Tuesday, September 27 • Assignment 09 due Tuesday, November 15
• Assignment 04 due Tuesday, October 4 • Assignment 10 due Tuesday, November 22
• Assignment 05 due Tuesday, October 18 • Assignment 11 due Tuesday, November 29
• Assignment 06 due Tuesday, October 25 • Assignment 12 due Tuesday, December 6
