Introduction to Real Analysis, Fourth Edition

Introduction to Real Analysis, Fourth Edition by Robert G. BartleDonald R. Sherbert The first three editions were very well received and this edition maintains the samespirit and user-friendly approach as earlier editions. Every section has been examined.Some sections have been revised, new examples and exercises have been added, and a newsection on the Darboux approach to the integral has been added to Chapter 7. There is morematerial than can be covered in a semester and instructors will need to make selections andperhaps use certain topics as honors or extra credit projects.To provide some help for students in analyzing proofs of theorems, there is anappendix on ''Logic and Proofs'' that discusses topics such as implications, negations,contrapositives, and different types of proofs. However, it is a more useful experience tolearn how to construct proofs by first watching and then doing than by reading abouttechniques of proof.Results and proofs are given at a medium level of generality. For instance, continuousfunctions on closed, bounded intervals are studied in detail, but the proofs can be readilyadapted to a more general situation. This approach is used to advantage in Chapter 11where topological concepts are discussed. There are a large number of examples toillustrate the concepts, and extensive lists of exercises to challenge students and to aid themin understanding the significance of the theorems.Chapter 1 has a brief summary of the notions and notations for sets and functions thatwill be used. A discussion of Mathematical Induction is given, since inductive proofs arisefrequently. There is also a section on finite, countable and infinite sets. This chapter canused to provide some practice in proofs, or covered quickly, or used as background materialand returning later as necessary.Chapter 2 presents the properties of the real number system. The first two sections dealwith Algebraic and Order properties, and the crucial Completeness Property is given inSection 2.3 as the Supremum Property. Its ramifications are discussed throughout theremainder of the chapter.In Chapter 3, a thorough treatment of sequences is given, along with the associatedlimit concepts. The material is of the greatest importance. Students find it rather naturalthough it takes time for them to become accustomed to the use of epsilon. A briefintroduction to Infinite Series is given in Section 3.7, with more advanced materialpresented in Chapter 9 Chapter 4 on limits of functions and Chapter 5 on continuous functions constitute theheart of the book. The discussion of limits and continuity relies heavily on the use ofsequences, and the closely parallel approach of these chapters reinforces the understandingof these essential topics. The fundamental properties of continuous functions on intervalsare discussed in Sections 5.3 and 5.4. The notion of a gauge is introduced in Section 5.5 andused to give alternate proofs of these theorems. Monotone functions are discussed inSection 5.6.The basic theory of the derivative is given in the first part of Chapter 6. This material isstandard, except a result of Caratheodory is used to give simpler proofs of the Chain Ruleand the Inversion Theorem. The remainder of the chapter consists of applications of theMean Value Theorem and may be explored as time permits.In Chapter 7, the Riemann integral is defined in Section 7.1 as a limit of Riemannsums. This has the advantage that it is consistent with the students' first exposure to theintegral in calculus, and since it is not dependent on order properties, it permits immediategeneralization to complex- and vector-values functions that students may encounter in latercourses. It is also consistent with the generalized Riemann integral that is discussed inChapter 10. Sections 7.2 and 7.3 develop properties of the integral and establish theFundamental Theorem and many more

An Introduction To Analysis

The book contains a rigorous exposition of calculus of a single real variable. It covers the standard topics of an introductory analysis course, namely, functions, continuity, differentiability, sequences and series of numbers, sequences and series of functions, and integration. A direct treatment of the Lebesgue integral, based solely on the concept of absolutely convergent series, is presented, which is a unique feature of a textbook at this level. The standard material is complemented by topics usually not found in comparable textbooks, for example, elementary functions are rigorously defined and their properties are carefully derived and an introduction to Fourier series is presented as an example of application of the Lebesgue integral.The text is for a post-calculus course for students majoring in mathematics or mathematics education. It will provide students with a solid background for further studies in analysis, deepen their understanding of calculus, and provide sound training in rigorous mathematical proof.
