Course Description
Math 205 is an analysis course for beginning graduate and honors undergraduate students. It provides a solid theoretical foundation of advanced calculus. It is higher level than Math 140 as it covers more material and on a deeper level. In the course we shall follow the text book by Robert Strichartz indicated below.
Homework will be assigned regularly. You will also be asked once a week to formulate a question concerning the material covered during the week and send it to us (the TA and myself) by email with subject line "YAQ-205".

Course Notes
I have decided to make my course notes available. They are, however, a first draft and might contain some imprecisions here and there. You are welcome to use them, but, by doing so, you understand that you are doing it at your own risk and peril.
