Introduction: Functional analysis is a field that has a central position between applied and pure fields that deal in one way or the other with function spaces.
Of course, a thorough understanding of basic analysis and linear algebra is necessary to follow the course. There is no text book for the lecture but literature for complementary reading will be posted below.
The exercises will consist of two different components: Exercise sheets that students should work on on their own and working sections that will be embedded in the regular course:
