Competencies

Non-official translation of the module descriptions. Only the German version is legally binding.

Students expand and deepen their mathematical knowledge and skills in the field of Analysis.

The students master the essential contents and methods of a special, research-relevant subject area of Analysis, in particular they can carry out independently complex proofs in this area requiring a high level of mathematical expertise.
Furthermore, students recognise further-reaching connections to previously acquired mathematical facts. They can transfer and apply the knowledge and methods they have learnt so far to other, deeper mathematical problem areas. Students also expand their mathematical intuition through further and more intensive study.
In the tutorials, students develop their ability to discuss mathematical topics and thus further prepare themselves for the requirements of the Master's module, in particular for the scientific discussion within the Master's seminar presentation and the defence of their Master's thesis.

Content of teaching

The courses in this module lead to current research questions in the field of Analysis in terms of method and content. Possible contents include:

  • Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems
  • Convex Integration Methods in fluid mechanics
  • Quantitative Homogenisation
  • Many-body Quantum Systems and their effective equations

Recommended previous knowledge

Depending on the chosen subject, the requirements will be specified in the course announcement.

Study requirements

Allocated examiner Workload LP2
Teaching staff of the course Tutorials Advanced Topics in Analysis (exercise)

Regular completion of the exercises, each with a recognisable solution approach, as well as participation in the exercise groups for the module's lecture. As a rule, participation in the exercise group includes presenting solutions to exercises twice after being asked to do so as well as regular contributions to the scientific discussion in the exercise group, for example in the form of comments and questions on the proposed solutions presented. The organiser may replace some of the exercises with face-to-face exercises.
