Comment
The course is taught jointly with: MM543 Measure and Integration and Banach Spaces (1st half) a.nd MM548: Measure and Integration and Banach spaces (7.5 ECTS)
Entry requirements
The course cannot be chosen by students who took: MM543 or MM548 Measure and Integration and Banach Spaces.
Academic preconditions
The content of MM533 Mathematical and Numerical Analysis and MM505 Linear algebra or MM538 Algebra and linear algebra is assumed to be known.
Course introduction
The aim of the course is to give a solid presentation of Measure and Integration Theory and thereby give an introduction to modern Functional Analysis. The course will also give the mathematical foundation for modern Probability Theory.
The course builds on the knowledge acquired in the course Mathematical & Numerical Analysis, and gives an academic basis for studying Probability and Functional Analysis, that are part of the degree.
In relation to the competence profile of the degree it is the explicit focus of the course to:
Give the competence to handle complex situations in study
Give skills to:
- apply the thinking and terminology from the subject's basic disciplines.
- analyze and evaluate the theoretical and practical problems for the application of a suitable mathematical model.
Give knowledge and understanding of:
- basic knowledge generation, theory and methods in mathematics.
- how to conduct analyses using mathematical methods and critically evaluate scientific theories and models.
Expected learning outcome
By the end of the course the student should be able to:
- use the basic concepts of the theory, in particular sigma-algebras, measurability and integration
- use the methods from the theory to solve concrete problems in Analysis, in particular concerning applications of the convergence theorems for integrals and Fubini's Theorem
- give an oral presentation of the statements and proofs related to any subject on a previous given list of topics within the course syllabus
- formulate the oral presentation a mathematically correct way
Content
The following main topics are contained in the course: Sigma-algebras and measures, measurable mappings, integration with respect to measures, the Lebesgue measure on the real line and on Rk, product measures, Lp-spaces.

Teaching Method
At the faculty of science, teaching is organized after the three-phase model ie. intro, training and study phase. These teaching activities are reflected in an estimated allocation of the workload of an average student as follows:
- Intro phase (lectures) - 28 hours
- Training phase: 14 hours
Teaching is centred on interaction and dialogue. In the intro phase, concepts, theories and models are introduced and put into perspective. In the training phase, students train their skills through exercises and dig deeper into the subject matter. In the study phase, students gain academic, personal and social experiences that consolidate and further develop their scientific proficiency. Focus is on immersion, understanding, and development of collaborative skills.
Educational activities:
- Reading of suggested literature
- Preparation of exercises in study groups

Transition rules
Transitional arrangements describe how a course replaces another course when changes are made to the course of study.
If a transitional arrangement has been made for a course, it will be stated in the list.
