Introductory Mathematics: Algebra and Analysis: Springer Undergraduate Mathematics Series

Geoffrey C. Smith

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 ian 1998

Offers an introduction to pure mathematics. This text begins with sets, functions and relations, proof by induction and contradiction, complex numbers, vectors and matrices, and provides a brief introduction to group theory. It moves onto analysis, providing an introduction to epsilon-delta technology and finishes with continuity and functions.
