Type of module:

Summary module description:
This module provides an introduction to measure theory and integration.

Aims:

The course gives an introduction to the general measure theoretical approach to integration. A unified approach to the concepts of length, area and integral is given.


Assessable learning outcomes:

By the end of the course, students are expected to be able:




  • to understand the concept of measure, measurability and integral construction for general measures;

  • to handle limits of integrals rigorously.


Additional outcomes:

Students should develop an understanding of the concepts of area, length and general measure theory. They should reflect on the difference, advantages and disadvantages of Riemann versus Lebesgue integration.


Outline content:

Measurable sets, measure, construction of measures, measure zero sets, measurable functions, construction of the integral, properties which hold almost everywhere, and limit theorems.

Penalties for late submission:

The Module Convenor will apply the following penalties for work submitted late:

  • where the piece of work is submitted after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): 10% of the total marks available for that piece of work will be deducted from the mark for each working day[1] (or part thereof) following the deadline up to a total of five working days;
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than five working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.
The University policy statement on penalties for late submission can be found at:
You are strongly advised to ensure that coursework is submitted by the relevant deadline. You should note that it is advisable to submit work in an unfinished state rather than to fail to submit any work.
