To define the Riemann integral for real functions of a single variable, and to prove its elementary properties rigorously. To extend the theory of continuity and the derivative to real functions of several variables. To engender a geometrical understanding of the multivariate derivative through the use of examples.

Learning Outcomes:
After taking this unit, students should be able to:
* state definitions and theorems in real analysis and present proofs of the main theorems
* construct their own proofs of simple unseen results and construct proofs of simple propositions
* Present mathematical arguments in a precise, lucid and grammatical fashion.
* Apply definitions and theorems to simple examples give a geometric interpretation of multivariate differentiation.
* Give a geometric interpretation of multivariate differentiation.

Skills:
Numeracy T/F A
Problem Solving T/F A
Written and Spoken Communication F (in tutorials) A (written).

Content:
Riemann integration in R, fundamental theorem of calculus, substitution, integration by parts, interchanging integrals and limits, integration of power series, improper integrals: unbounded intervals, functions with singularities.
Real normed vector spaces with special reference to Euclidean space Rn: Euclidean inner product; convergence, continuity, open and closed sets; Bolzano-Weierstrass and Weierstrass theorems.
Frechet derivative as best linear approximation, partial derivative, directional derivative, Jacobi matrix, gradient, mean value theorem, Lipschitz continuity.
