Programme

Part 1: School Skills Review.
Real numbers and their subsets (N, Z, Q).
Roots and properties of rational powers.
Inequalities (also graphic resolution).
Fundamental properties of exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions.

Part 2: Introduction to the concept of limit, continuity and differentiability through definitions, examples and exercises
Definition of limit for functions from R to R.
Calculation of delta as a function of epsilon in simple cases.
Fundamental properties of limits: algebra of limits and computation of finite limits.
Infinite limits, limit of sequences.
Extended limits algebra: extension of the calculus of limits.
Continuous functions and points of discontinuity.
Derivative: definition and rules of derivation (statements). Calculation of derivatives.
Relation between derivative and monotony.
Convexity: definition and criteria for C^1 and C^2 functions.
Applications to the qualitative study of function graphs.

Part 3: Introduction to the concept of integral and series through definitions, examples and exercises.
Definition of Riemann integral and its fundamental properties (linearity, invariance by translation, positivity). Calculation of simple integrals using the definition.
Illustration of the fundamental theorem of integral calculus.
Calculation of Primitives: main methods (substitution, integration by parts); integration of rational functions and other special classes.
Numerical series. Convergence criteria: statements and applications.
Improper integrals. Convergence criteria: statements and applications.

Part 4: Elementary solution methods of ordinary differential equations
Solution methods for special classes of ordinal differential equations (EDO) including:
linear first order, separation of variables, second order with constant coefficients, etc.

Type of delivery of the course

Lectures and exercise sessions in class. All the material of the program will be explained in class. The lessons/exercise sessions will include a continuous dialogue with the students: the feedback from the students during the course is a fundamental tool for the success of the course itself. Attendance is optional and the understanding of the texts adopted is sufficient for the full use of the course. Of course, attendance is desirable and STRONGLY recommended, as the interaction between teacher and students is a fundamental and unrepeatable teaching tool.

Type of evaluation

The evaluation is based on a written test and an oral exam. There are two written tests "in progress" which, in the event of a positive outcome, replace the final written test. Examples of tests of past years will be available on the web site dedicated to the course which will be constantly updated by the teacher.
