Aim :

To introduce mathematical concepts arising in the areas of calculus and functions of complex variables so that build confidence in students in solving related problems.

Intended Learning Outcomes:

On successful completion of the course, the students should be able to;

  • Analyze concepts in limits, continuity, differentiability of real-valued functions of single and multiple variables and integration of single variable function.
  • Determine the convergence of sequences and infinite series, the power series expansion of real analytic functions.
  • Analyze lines, planes, curves and surfaces in 2D and 3D spaces.
  • Derive the mathematical models of physical problems as differential equations.
  • Solve first order separable, linear and exact differential equations and reducible forms. 
  • Analyze limits, continuity, and differentiability of complex-valued functions, and determine holomorphic and harmonic functions.
