Function theory II, spring 2010

What is going on?

We just decided that Exam 1 of the course takes place on Tuesday 23.3 at 14-17 in C323, a DIFFERENT ROOM from Tuesday's lectures. The last thing included is the
Riemann mapping theorem. Note that there are no lectures during the week of the Exam 1.

Prerequisities

Function theory I

Scope

10 op.

Type

Advanced studies.

Literature

Several books are mentioned at the lectures. However, nearly basic book on function theory (of which there are plenty!)
cover most of the lectures.

Lecturer

Eero Saksman

Lectures

At least the weeks 3-4, 6-9, 11, 13, 15-17 tu 14-16 C124, we 10-13 C123, in addition exercise groups 2 hours weekly.
First lecture 19.01.

Eastern holidays 1.-7.4.

Test

Two exams. The first test takes place on 23.3 at 14-17 in C323, not the same room where we have Tuesdays lectures. The last thing included is the
Riemann mapping theorem.
The time of the second test will be decided later on.
