Text: Introduction to Metric and Topological Spaces, by W. A. Sutherland, published by Oxford Science Publications. Course description. Metric spaces, topological spaces, continuity, Hausdorff condition, compactness, connectedness, product spaces, quotient spaces. Other topics as time allows. Grading: The plan is to cover most of, or at least as much of, Sutherland's text as possible in one quarter. Extensive homework assignments will be given. These will be the basis for essentially one-third of your final grade. The other two-thirds will be determined by a midterm and a final exam. The weights of each of these are as follows.
The midterm will test the material covered during the first half of the course; the final exam will test the second half. Make-ups: Make-ups for exams will only be given with documented University-approved excuses (see University Regulations). ADA: Students with disabilities can get assistance from the Office of Services for Students with Disabilities (845-1637). I'm happy to work with them and you.
