Term 1


The following is an outline of the course, which will be updated as the course progresses. Guides to the topic we will cover in any given week are only approximate. References to sections are to the lecture notes obtainable from the undergraduate office, which are extracted from Reid and Szendrői.

Important note about homework solutions: There are almost certainly mistakes in the homework solutions posted (though hopefully these are mostly minor typos). Please let me know as soon as you notice a mistake.
