Course Descritption: Second course in a rigorous three-quarter sequence on real analysis. Topics include: differentiation, integration, sequences and series of functions, some special functions.

Textbook: Principles of Mathematical Analysis by Walter Rudin, 3rd edition. We will cover most of chapters 5 through 8.

Additional Study Materials: (you will not be tested on these)

• A list of errata in the course textbook (by George Bergman)
  
• A supplement to the exercises in the course textbook (by George Bergman)
• Elementary Analysis: The Theory of Calculus by K. A. Ross, 2nd edition (standard textbook for 142A-B; less advanced but may be helpful. Available for free to UCSD students on the campus network, and can be found by searching in UCSD's Library Catalog).
• 140A-B Lecture Notes (by Todd Kemp). Note that these lecture notes do not follow our textbook and may cover slightly different topics. This is for reference only.
  
• The Devil's Staircase (by Todd Kemp): a famous example of a monotone increasing function whose derivative is 0 "almost everywhere" ("almost everywhere" is defined in 140C / Chap. 11 of Rudin).
• The Weierstrass Function (by Todd Kemp): a famous example of an everywhere continuous but nowhere differentiable function.
  

Lecture: Lecture will occur live on Zoom (use meeting ID: 878-269-867 or navigate to https://ucsd.zoom.us/j/878269867). Videos of our lectures can be found on our Canvas page under the Media Gallery tab. Lecture Notes PDF

Community Interaction: Typically meeting in the classroom allows students the opportunity to get to know one another and discuss the course material together. Since class meetings will not occur, as a substitute we have a discussion forum on Piazza that everyone is strongly encouraged to use. As part of their weekly office hours, the professor and teaching assistant will spend time each week responding to discussions on piazza (see above for specific hours). Our piazza page is here: http://piazza.com/ucsd/spring2020/math140b

Homework: Homework will be assigned regularly and due on Fridays at 2:30. No late homework will be accepted, but your lowest homework score will be dropped when computing your final grade. On each assignment, a few problems will be graded for correctness, while the others will be graded simply for completion. We will use Gradescope for turning in homework. When registering for gradescope, please register using your UCSD email address.

Exams: The midterm exams will be taken at home and solutions will be uploaded to Gradescope. The exams will be open-book and open-note, but the use of online resources and help from other humans is forbidden. If cheating is suspected, students will be required to have a one-on-one zoom meeting where students will have to solve similar problems and/or comment on their exam solutions.

• First Midterm: (Solutions) Friday April 24. Covers Ch. 5 and the first section of Ch. 6. Practice Exam A (solutions), Practice Exam B (solutions)
  
• Second Midterm: (Solutions) Friday May 22. Covers Ch. 6 (excluding the first section) and Ch. 7 (excluding the last section). Practice Exam A (solutions), Practice Exam B (solutions)
  
• Final Exam: (Solutions) Thursday June 11 from 11:30 AM to 2:30 PM. Covers Ch. 5 - 8 excluding the Gamma function. Practice Final A (solutions), Practice Final B (solutions)
  

Grading: The grading scheme has been updated. See the email I sent on Monday June 8 at 4:57PM titled "140B Final Exam will be No Fault."

Below is a record of the originally planned grading scheme:
Your final grade will be the maximum of the following two weighted averages:

• 20% Homework, 20% First Midterm, 20% Second Midterm, 40% Final Exam.
• 20% Homework, 20% Best Midterm, 60% Final Exam

Special Accommodations: Students requiring accommodations should provide an OSD letter of certification and OSD accommodation recommendation to the instructor as soon as possible.
