It was a great pleasure for me to teach this class! Have a great summer, everyone, and hope to see you in the Fall. Check out the classes I am teaching: Math 134: Dynamical Systems and Math 213: Advanced Differential Geometry. Email me if you would like to know more about these classes.
Btw, if you are interested, I will most likely be able to show you your (graded) exam on Thursday, May 24 in the afternoon, before I finalize the grades. I'll post the exact time later. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!
Here's a sample final (from 2006) with solutions. Last year's final with solutions is here.
(b) The best way to prepare for the midterm is (as usual) to go over the homework and the problems in its epsilon-neighborhood in the book. Btw, you can bring a 3 X 5 inch index card with your notes to the exam.
Remember to prepare your questions and problems you would like to discuss. On Monday, I plan to go over some homework problems and this sample midterm 2 from Spring 2006.
As I mentioned before, I'll be on paternity leave until about April 9 or 11, during which time Professor Dimitar Grantcharov will bu substituting for me. You should turn in your assignments to him at the end of class (on the day the assignment is due, of course). I will try to be available by email as much as possible, so feel free to email me your questions. You can also see Prof. Grantcharov during his office hours which can be found here.
On a related note, please try to ask more questions, give more comments and in general be more active in class! It will make the lectures more interesting and useful for you, and it will help me get a sense of how fast or slow I should go and what I should focus on. Some feedback (also via the anonymous feedback form below) would be helpfull as well.
Also, Homework 3 has been posted and is due on Wednesday, February 21.
And one last thing: I have decided to move Midterm 2 from April 9 to April 18. The main reason is that I will be on paternity leave, probably from March 8 to April 8 or so. My most likely substitute will be Professor Dimitar Grantcharov.
