MATH 4130

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

Introduction to the rigorous theory underlying calculus, covering the real number system and functions of one variable. Based entirely on proofs. The student is expected to know how to read and, to some extent, construct proofs before taking this course. Topics typically include construction of the real number system, properties of the real number system, continuous functions, differential and integral calculus of functions of one variable, sequences and series of functions.

When Offered Fall, Spring.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: high level of performance in MATH 2210-MATH 2220, MATH 2230-MATH 2240, MATH 1920-MATH 2940, or equivalent.
Forbidden Overlaps Forbidden Overlap: due to an overlap in content, students will not receive credit for both MATH 3110 and MATH 4130.

Distribution Category (MQR-AS, SMR-AS)

Comments Strong proficiency in writing proofs is expected. More experience with proofs may be gained by first taking a 3000-level MATH course. Students who do not intend to take MATH 4140 are encouraged to take MATH 4130 in the spring.
