Course detail

Functional Analysis I

FSI-SU1Acad. year: 2017/2018

The course deals with basic concepts and principles of functional analysis concerning, in particular, metric, linear normed and unitary spaces. Elements of the theory of Lebesgue measure and Lebesgue integral will also be mentioned. It will be shown how the results are applied in solving problems of mathematical analysis and numerical mathematics.
