Course objectives
The theory of measure and integration is a part of the basic course of mathematical analysis that is necessary for further successful study of modern mathematical analysis and its applications. The aim of the course is understand the abstract measure theory and the integral defined by a measure. In the special case one then gets the Lebesgue measure and the Lebesgue integral.

At the end of this course, the students will
- understand the Caratheodory construction of measurable sets and a measue,
- understand the construction of an abstract integral with respect to a measure,
- understand the construction of the Lebesgue measure and the Lebesgue integral,
- be able to explain the differences between the Lebesgue and Riemann integrals,
- understand the integration in product spaces,
- be able to analyze the behavior of functions defined as an integral depending on a parameter,
- be ready for applications of the measure theory and integration in differential equations, calculus of variations, and probability theory.
Syllabus
  • 1. Fundamental concepts of the measure theory: sigma-algebra, Borel set, measure, measurable sets.
  • 2. Outer measure and the Caratheodory construction of a measure.
  • 3. Lebesgue measure in Rn.
  • 4. Measurable functions.
  • 5. The abstract integral with respect to a measure, its basic properties, limit theorems.
  • 6. The Lebesgue integral in Rn, a comparison of the Lebesgue and Rieman integrals.
  • 7. The product of measures, integration in product spaces, the Tonelli and Fubini theorems.
  • 8. The substitution in the integral.
  • 9. Integrals depending on a parameter: continuity, differentiation, and their applications to the evaluation of definite integrals.
  • 10. Improper Lebesgue integral in Rn, Gamma and beta functions.

Teaching methods
Two-hour lectures and two-hour exercises.
Assessment methods
Written final exam combined with an oral examination. Two mid-term tests will be performed during the tutorials. The results from tutorials are partially transfered into the final examination. The written and oral part of the exam contains also theoretical questions to proofs. The aim is to demonstrate the understanding of the basic concepts, their mutual relationship, and overall connections in the measure theory and integration.
Language of instruction
Czech
