Course detail

Functional Analysis I

FSI-SU1 Acad. year: 2026/2027 Winter semester

The course deals with basic concepts and principles of functional
analysis concerning, in particular, metric, linear normed and unitary spaces, and linear functionals. Elements of the theory of Lebesgue measure and Lebesgue integral will also be mentioned. It will be shown how the results are applied in solving problems of mathematical analysis and numerical mathematics.
