Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to provide the capability of the
student to face both theoretical and practical problems in
Mathematical Analysis, referring to the analysis of the behavior of
a real function of a real variable, computation of definite
integrals, development of a function in power series.
Course contents

Sequences. Limit of a sequence. Monotonic sequences and the number e.
Real functions. Limits and elementary functions. Asymptotics and Landau symbols. Continuous functions. Bolzano theorem on intermediate value and Weierstrass theorem on maxima and minima.
Derivatives. Theorems of Rolle, Lagrange, Cauchy and De l'Hopital. Graph of a function, extrema. Convex and concave functions. Inflexion points. Asymptotes. Taylor polynomials and series.

Teaching methods
Lessons ex cathedra using also video beamer. Homework. Computer
algebra will also be employed to support thoretical
arguments.
Assessment methods
Written examination of 2 hours, where is
possible to use calculators and books. The exam is completed by an
oral examination if the written examination is satisfactory. The
aim of the exam is to detect the capability of the student to face
both theoretical and practical problems in Mathematical Analysis.
The written examination can be divided, for the first call, in to
two partial examinantion and is composed by multiple choice
questions and solution of
exercises.
Teaching tools
Video beamer and blackboard. Computer algebra to illustrate important topics.
The teaching material presented in class will be made available to the student in electronic format through the university's institutional portal. Username and password are reserved for students enrolled at the University of Bologna.
The teacher responds to e-mail messages, duly signed by the student with Name, Surname and matriculation number, and which concern appointment requests or topics that are not covered by the course information presented here.
