Syllabus

Course overview and goals

We give an introduction on measures and Lebesgue integration, which are notions refining and extending area and integration. After introducing Lebesgue (outer) measure and measurable functions in the 1-dimensional Euclidean space, we define the Lebesgue integral and explain the fundamental properties.
We present convergence theorems concerning exchange between limit and integration for sequences of functions.
Next we extend the theory of Lebesgue integration to multi-dimensional Euclidean spaces and present Fubini's theorem
on the relation between the multiple integral and the iterated integral.
Finally, we deal with the Lebesgue spaces and related inequalities for functions.

Study advice (preparation and review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend a certain length of time outside of class on preparation and review (including for assignments), as specified by the Tokyo Institute of Technology Rules on Undergraduate Learning (東京工業大学学修規程) and the Tokyo Institute of Technology Rules on Graduate Learning (東京工業大学大学院学修規程), for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
