Aim: Many advanced mathematical disciplines, such as Global Analysis, Global Variational Calculus, Dynamical Systems, Differential Geometry, Topology and the Theory of Lie Groups, have a common foundation. It is the purpose of this course to teach the students these fundamental concepts so as to give students a firm basis for attending advanced courses and for further studies of modern mathematical literature.
Contents: Fundamental concepts in general topology: Metric spaces, topological spaces, compactness, connectedness, function spaces. Fundamental concepts in analysis: Normed vector spaces, differentiability in normed vector spaces, the inverse function theorem in Banach spaces. Differentiable manifolds. Selected applications from one or more of the subjects: Dynamical systems, singularity theory, geometric control theory, geometric variational problems.
