787.03 Summer 2003 Week 4
Week 4 (week of July 14). Topic for the week:
Series of real numbers.
On Monday, July 14, we talked about series with non-negative
terms (Kaczor and Nowak V.I, section 3.2). We did problem #2 from the
Spring 99 qualifying exam, problem #4 from Spring 96, Kaczor and Nowak
V.I problems 3.2.8, 3.2.10. (I wanted to do 3.2.13, 3.2.28 and 3.2.29
also but ran out of time!).
On Tuesday, July 15, we will solve the Autumn 97 exam. Here's
the solutions (including
problem #6 which we didn't get to in class).
On Wednesday, July 16 and Friday, July 18 we did problems 4
and 6 from the Autumn 97 exam and problems 3.3.2, 3.3.3, and 3.3.8
from Kaczor and Nowak, V.I. I wanted to also do problems 3.3.6 and
the following miscellaneous problem.
On Friday, July 18, I did problems 1 through 4 on the Autumn
98 qualifying exam (here are solutions for those
problems---I'll post the rest after we do them in class Monday!). On
Monday I'll also try to do problems from Kaczor and Nowak, V.I,
chapters 3.4 and 3.5.
