Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
The course will be assessed orally (exposition at the board). Students may use pre-prepared personnal notes, though should demonstrate good independent command of the material.Update (14.12.2023). The course will be examined by a 30min oral exam, at the board in my office.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
The course will be assessed orally (blackboard). The criteria for individual grades will be in line with those applied for other masters courses in pure mathematics.Update (14.12.2023). I expect any student who is able to solve the exercises / problems which were given during the lectures will be able to pass the course comfortably. Please email me if you would like a standalone copy of these exercises.
Prüfungsstoff
The oral assessments will be on a range of pre-assigned topics, the list of which will be drawn up during the semester (and subsequently available upon request).Update (14.12.2023). The topics lectured up until the Christmas break are examinable. (The January lectures will be more advanced and not for examination.) Please contact me if you require a list of topics.
