Real Analysis: An Undergraduate Problem Book for Mathematicians, Applied Scientists, and Engineers

Real Analysis: An Undergraduate Problem Book for Mathematicians, Applied Scientists, and Engineers is a classical Real Analysis/Calculus problem book. This topic has been a compulsory subject for every undergraduate studying mathematics or engineering for a very long time. This volume contains a huge number of engaging problems and solutions, as well as detailed explanations of how to achieve these solutions. This latter quality is something that many problem books lack, and it is hoped that this feature will be useful to students and instructors alike.

Features

• Hundreds of problems and solutions

• Can be used as a stand-alone problem book, or in conjunction with the author’s textbook, Real Analysis: An Undergraduate Textbook for Mathematicians, Applied Scientists, and Engineers, ISBN 9781032481487
• Perfect resource for undergraduate students studying a first course in Calculus or Real Analysis

• Contains explanatory figures, detailed techniques, tricks, hints, and “recipes” on how to proceed once we have a calculus problem in front of us.

Gustavo da Silva Araújo is an Assistant professor at the State University of Paraíba, Brazil. His primary research interests encompass real and complex analysis, the geometry of Banach spaces, operator theory, series and summability, mathematical inequalities, and lineability. He has authored several papers in these areas, and also serves as reviewer for many mathematics journals. He earned his Ph.D. in mathematics from the Federal University of Paraíba in 2016.

Gustavo A. Muñoz Fernández graduated in Mathematics from Universidad Complutense in 1994 and in Physics from UNED in 2001. He earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Universidad Complutense in 1999.
