Mathematical Analysis II

Academic Year 2023/2024 - Teacher: Salvatore LEONARDI

Expected Learning Outcomes

1. Knowledge and understanding: The student will be able to understand and assimilate the definitions and main results of the basic mathematical analysis for functions of several real variables, necessary for the treatment and modeling of problems deriving from science applied.

2. Applying Knowledge and understaning: The student will be able to acquire an appropriate level of autonomy in theoretical knowledge and in the use of basic analytical tools. The course prepares for the study of Fourier series and Fourier and Laplace transforms.

3. Making judgments: Ability to reflect and calculate. Ability to apply the notions learned to solving problems and exercises.

4. Communication skills: Ability to communicate the notions acquired through an adequate scientific language.

5. Learning skills: Ability to deepen and develop acquired knowledge. Ability to critically use tables and analytical and computer tools of symbolic computation.

Learning Assessment

Learning Assessment Procedures

1. A single in itinere written test is given (called test or section A) consisting of theoretical and practical questions concerning the part of the program treated up to an agreed date
2. The final exam consists of a written paper divided into two sections: A (with the topics covered up to the ongoing test) and B containing practical and theoretical questions concerning the part of the program treated after test A
3. Passing the in itinere test allows the student to be exempted from completing the questions of section A in the final exam (thus increasing the time available to him in the sessions of the current Academic Year)
4. Those who have not passed the in itinere test can also access the final exam, but in this case they will have to complete both the questions of section A and the questions of section B of the final exam.
5. The benefits of passing the in itinere test remain valid until the end of the third exam session of the current Academic Year.

Lectures in classroom. 

As a rule, marks will be assigned according to the following scheme

- not approved: the student has not acquired the basic concepts and is not able to carry out the exercises.

- 18-23: the student demonstrates minimal mastery of the basic concepts, his skills in exposition and connection of contents are modest, she/he is able to solve simple exercises

- 24-27: the student demonstrates good mastery of the course contents, her/his presentation and content connection skills are good, she/he solves the exercises with few errors

- 28-30 cum laude: the student has acquired all the contents of the course and is able to explain them fully and connect them with a critical spirit; she/he solves the exercises completely and without errors.

Verification of learning can also be carried out electronically, should the conditions require it. In this case, the duration of the written test may be subject to change.
