This is a Masters/PhD course that I am offering in the Winter semester 2018-2019 at WWU Münster. It takes place on Wednesdays at 14 c.t. in room N2. Every second week, starting on November 8th, there is an exercise session which takes place on Thursdays at 14 c.t., also in room N2.

Lecture Notes:

I am writing lecture notes as I prepare the lectures, and the current version can be found here (last update: 4.4.2019). They are incomplete and probably contain many typos, so they are by no means a good substitute for class notes (rather a complement to them).

Exercise sheets:

The sheets are handed out on the Wednesday of the week where no exercise session takes place (starting on October 31st) and are due two weeks later.

Sheet 1, due on November 14th.
Sheet 2, due on November 28th.
Sheet 3, due on December 12th.
Sheet 4, due on January 9th.
Sheet 5, due on January 30th.
