Contents:
1 - Linear Algebra 2 - ϵ and δ Real Analysis 3 - Calculus for Vector-Valued Functions 4 - Point Set Topology 5 - Classical Stokes’ Theorems 6 - Differential Forms and Stokes’ Theorem 7 - Curvature for Curves and Surfaces 8 - Geometry 9 - Complex Analysis 10 - Countability and the Axiom of Choice 11 - Algebra 12 - Lebesgue Integration 13 - Fourier Analysis 14 - Differential Equations 15 - Combinatorics and Probability Theory 16 - Algorithms
Summary: Beginning graduate students in mathematical sciences and related areas in physical and computer sciences and engineering are expected to be familiar with a daunting breadth of mathematics, but few have such a background. This bestselling book helps students fill in the gaps in their knowledge. Thomas A. Garrity explains the basic points and a few key results of all the most important undergraduate topics in mathematics, emphasizing the intuitions behind the subject. The explanations are accompanied by numerous examples, exercises and suggestions for further reading that allow the reader to test and develop their understanding of these core topics. Featuring four new chapters and many other improvements, this second edition of All the Math You Missed is an essential resource for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students who need to learn some serious mathematics quickly.
