Final: June 8, Friday, 8:30-11:30am, room 380-380X.
Assignment VIII, due Wed. 6/6, 5pm, to 380-383Z
Information
The final will be close book, close notes and close completed assignments. However, each can bring one piece of paper with useful information on both sides of the paper. No calculator during the exams.
This course will cover topics on holomorphic functions of one variable. We will begin with holomorphic functions, their properties as mappings, their study via line integrals, their zeros, poles, singularities, residues and their applications.
Multivariable calculus, equivalent of Math 51 and 52.

Exams
The final will be on Friday June 8, 8:30-11:30AM room 380-380X. To request an alternative midterm, please contact me at least a week ahead of the scheduled exam.
Assignments
The weekly problem sets are your best opportunity to master the course material. You’re encouraged to work with other members of the class, but each student is responsible for writing up his or her own solution. All assignments will be evaluated on both content and exposition, so it’s a good idea to approach problems in two steps: first, figure out the logical structure of your solution. Then decide on the clearest way to explain your argument and write it up carefully.
Weekly assignments are posted at the end of the weeks, and are due the following Wednesdays at 5PM, to my office. (Do not leave the assignments in my mailbox.) No late assignment will be accepted unless pre-approved.
Further help and Advice
- Confused about the material? Your first resource should be the office hours offered by the teaching assistants and me. Office hours are also a good time to give me feedback on the class.
- Please write neat and complete solutions to the problem sets. "Neat" means well structured, not only esthetically, but also logically. "Complete" means that the grader will need to see a sufficient amount of explanations and details to give you full credit, even if the question only asks for a numerical answer.
- The mathematics department initiated a new program for undergraduates in Math courses--Homework Night. Room 3801U is reserved on Tuesday evenings from 6-10PM for any student in any Math course to meet with their peers and work on their homework assignments.
