    Sequences and convergence, limit points of a set, limits versus limit points

    Review of basic set theory and countable sets, the definition of uncountability

    Dense subsets, countable dense subsets of Rn

    Description of the open subsets of the real line

    Limits of the values of vector-valued functions; CAUTION: Treatment of this is somewhat non-rigorous in Apostol!

    Continuity of sums, products, etc., of continuous functions, examples: Sections 8.4 and 8.5 of Apostol, Volume II

    The concepts of compactness and uniform continuity

    Properties of compact sets

    The relation between continuity of partial derivaties and differentiability: Sections 8.13 and relevant exercises in Section 8.14 of Apostol, Volume II

    Taylor's Theorem

    Critical points, points of local extremum, non-degenerate critical points and the Hessian: Sections 9.11–9.13 of Apostol, Volume II

    Step functions: Sections 11.2 and 11.31 of Apostol, Volume II

    Multiple integrals: Sections 11.3–11.6, Section 11.31 and relevant exercises from Sections 11.9 and 11.15 of Apostol, Volume II

    Orientation: The recommended sources, for the detail in which this was covered, are your lecture notes.

    Stokes' Theorem for regular parametric manifolds

    Special cases of Stokes' Theorem: The theorem in Apostol, Section 12.11; Green's Theorem

    The notion of C-differentiability and the Cauchy–Riemann condition: Gamelin, Sections II.2, II.3
