Synopsis:

The course is focused at elements of calculus in two and more variables and at real, complex and functional series.

Calculus in two variables: notion of a limit and continuity, partial derivative, differential and its applications. Derivative of a composed function, derivative of an implicit function. Higher order derivatives, local extremes. Constrained extremes, least squares method. Double and triple integrals, geometrical interpretation, Fubini theorem. Integration by substitution in double and triple integral.

Complex sequences, series of numbers. Convergence of complex series. Functional series and their convergence, power series. Taylor series. .
