This course introduces students to topics of current interest in analysis. The list of possible topics include: distribution theory, random matrix theory, spectral theory, free probability, free Euler hydrodynamics, quantum groups, and recent advances in operator algebras. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): MATH 371 and MATH 379; or permission of the instructor. Note: This course is highly recommended as an elective for students in Honours Mathematics, Honours Mathematical Physics and other Honours streams. Students may take this course more than once for credit, provided the topic covered in each offering differs substantially. Students must consult the Department to ensure that the topics covered are different.
