== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Real analysis''' β The rigorous mathematical study of the real numbers, sequences, series, limits, continuity, differentiation, and integration. * '''Real numbers (β)''' β The complete ordered field; characterized uniquely (up to isomorphism) by the least upper bound property. * '''Least upper bound (supremum)''' β The smallest upper bound of a set; the completeness axiom: every non-empty set with an upper bound has a supremum in β. * '''Completeness of β''' β Every Cauchy sequence in β converges (to a real number); no "holes" in β (unlike β). * '''Sequence''' β A function β β β; the foundation of limit theory. * '''Limit of a sequence''' β L is the limit of (aβ) if: for every Ξ΅ > 0, β N such that n > N βΉ |aβ - L| < Ξ΅. * '''Cauchy sequence''' β A sequence where |aβ - aβ| β 0 as n,m β β; converges iff β is complete. * '''Epsilon-delta definition (continuity)''' β f is continuous at c if: βΞ΅>0, βΞ΄>0: |x-c|<Ξ΄ βΉ |f(x)-f(c)|<Ξ΅. * '''Uniform continuity''' β Ξ΄ depends only on Ξ΅, not on the point c; stronger than pointwise continuity. * '''Differentiability''' β f'(x) = lim_{hβ0} [f(x+h)-f(x)]/h; requires the limit to exist. * '''Riemann integral''' β Defined via upper and lower sums; the standard calculus integral. * '''Lebesgue integral''' β A more powerful integral based on measure theory; integrates functions Riemann cannot. * '''Series''' β Sum of a sequence; Ξ£aβ; convergence is the limit of partial sums. * '''Uniform convergence''' β A sequence of functions fβ β f uniformly if: βΞ΅>0, βN: βx, n>N βΉ |fβ(x)-f(x)|<Ξ΅. * '''Power series''' β A series Ξ£ aβxβΏ; converges in a disk; the basis of Taylor series. </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
