Learning Outcomes:
The student should learn how to recognize, manipulate and apply the foundational concepts of metric analysis: metric spaces and metrics; isometries; the distance between points and sets; the diameter of a set; the boundary, closure and interior of sets; balls; open and closed sets; density; the topology of a metric space; convergence of sequences; continuity of functions; Cauchy sequences; completeness and a selection of additional topics that will be covered in the course (for example, isolated points and accumulation points, fixed point theorems, compactness, connectedness).
