For the next meeting, on 5th May, you are asked to read yourselves Sect. 4

of Spivak's book,

pages 82-97, with special attention to Th. 4-6, definition of df, d\omega,

Th. 4-9, 4- 10,

Study the proof of Th. 4-11 (the Poincare lemma).

The next assignment will be placed tomorrow!

See more old exams below!

 

 

 

Welcome to the course.
The schedule for the course can be found via the link to webTimeEdit top of the page.

A change in Assignment 2. Turn-in time moved to Week 5. Use English version only!!

More additional literature.

Read about the degree of the mapping and its applications here

(DJVUReader can be downloaded from  )

The last section of the course will be based upon Ch.1,2 of the book

Bott, Tu

(very) old exams exam 1 , Exam 2

(too complicated, by my opinion)

Assignments

Week 2-3 (in English) (turn in week 3)

Week 3-4 (in English) (turn in week 5)

Week 4-5 (in English) Turn in week 5

week 5-6 Turn in week 7

!!! The text of Ass. 4 is correct, just remove the word ‘closed’!! Anad the lasty factor in the first product in the formula is $dx^d$

week 6-7 Turn in week 8, in English

Additional questions. Study the proofs of the inverse  mapping theorem in S  and the one given in the lecture. Investigate, for each proof,, how the conditions

 of the theorem can be relaxed so that the proofs still are valid.

It is proved that a continuous mapping maps compact sets to compacts. Is the converse statement true: if a mapping maps any compact set to a compact one,

is it necessarily continuous?,

 

 

 

Examination

The examination consists of a written exam and week assignments. For ‘godkänt’ one needs at least 40% of both parts approved.

 

Examination procedures

In Chalmers Student Portal you can read about when exams are given and what rules apply on exams at Chalmers.
At the link
Scedule you can find when exams are given for courses at University of Gothenburg.
At the exam, you should be able to show valid identification.
Before the exam, it is important that you report that you want to take the examination. If you study at Chalmers, you will do this by the
Chalmers Student Portal, and if you study at University of Gothenburg, so sign up via GU's Student Portal.

You can see your results in Ladok by logging on to the Student portal.

At the annual examination:
When it is practical a separate review is arranged. The date of the review will be announced here on the course website. Anyone who can not participate in the review may thereafter retrieve and review their exam on Mathematical sciences study expedition, Monday through Friday, from 9:00 to 13:00. Check that you have the right grades and score. Any complaints about the marking must be submitted in writing at the office, where there is a form to fill out.

At re-examination:
Exams are reviewed and picked up at the Mathematical sciences study expedition, Monday through Friday, from 9:00 to 13:00. Any complaints about the marking must be submitted in writing at the office, where there is a form to fill out.
