Courses

In Fall 2011 I am teaching MAT025, Advanced Calculus. Students are referred to the UC Davis Smartsite for the course.

Linear Algebra As an Introduction to Abstract Mathematics, are the lecture notes for MAT067, Modern Linear Algebra, I coauthored with Isaiah Lankham and Anne Schilling. Click on the title to download a pdf file of the text. Comments regarding typos or improvements are welcome! See the MAT067 homepage for more information on the course.

The textbook for MAT201ABC Applied Analysis, by John Hunter and Bruno Nachtergaele, World Scientific 2001 ISBN 9810241917, is available on-line. You can view the text chapter by chapter (including errata for the first and second printing) in PS or PDF format.

Seminars

The Research Focus Group on Quantum Phase Transition (FWS 2011-12) meets on Mondays, 3:10-5:00pm, in 1147 MSB. More information will be posted on the RFG-QPhT webpage.
This RFG is funded by the National Science Foundation and is part of the Davis VIGRE project.

For the Mathematical Physics and Probability Seminar, or other regularly scheduled seminars at the UCDavis Math department, see the Mathematics Colloquia and Seminars Page.
