Analyse II

Series of real and complex numbers, sequences and series of functions; pointwise convergence, uniform convergence and convergence in the mean-square sense. Power series, Fourier series. Generalized integrals and derivation of functions defined by integrals. Linear differential equations: initial value problems, boundary value problems, Sturm-Liouville problems, Green's function. Second order linear partial differential equations: characteristic curves and Cauchy-Kovaleska problem, well-posed problems, wave equation, heat equation, Laplace and Poisson equations.

Study the basic concepts and tools of real analysis necessary for the engineering sciences in general, as well as developing the ability to go further in mathematics when needed.

Method(s) of evaluation

• written examination

written examination

A written examination in January (Analyse 2A) and another written examination in May or June (Analyse 2B), both on both theory and exercises. Open questions are asked where the ability of applying the notions and theorems in a slightly different framework is tested, together with the ability to elaborate and write down careful proofs.
Two second session written examinations in August following the same modalities as un first session (one written exam for each part, with possible exemption of one of the exams in case of a grade higher or equal to 10/20 for the corresponding part).

Mark calculation method (including weighting of intermediary marks)

The arithmetic mean of the grades for the examinations of Analyse 2A and Analyse 2B, rounded to the nearest half-integer.
If the credits of the course are not acquired after a given evaluation session, any partial grade (Analyse 2A or Analyse 2B) that is higher or equal to 10/20 will be automatically transferred to the next session. In no circumstances will a grade strictly lower than 10/20 be transferred to another session.
