Lecture notes

  • Volume 1 · Logic and proof methods


    The first volume: the language and the methods of reasoning in analysis. Basics of logic and proof techniques: logical symbols, universal implications, the law of the contrapositive, necessary and sufficient conditions, proofs by contradiction, logic and sets. The principle of induction and proofs by induction. Definitions, theorems with proofs, worked examples; the exercises of the part, with solutions, are in the volume Exercises 1.
