Homework
There will be one homework assignment every week. Homeworks are
strictly individual. Be extremely neat, precise, and
concise. It is important that you learn what to
include and what to omit from your solutions. Staple
your homework in the upper left corner, and begin
each problem, in correct order, at the top of a new
page (or side).
All of the problems that will be assigned can and should be
solved using material that we have discussed in
class. Do not solve a problem by quoting a theorem
in some reference, or by stating that the solution
is an easy consequence of Theorem 5.5 in a book you
found.
Grading Policy
Homework: 30% (Due every wednesday at the beginning of the class)
Midterm: 30% (Wednesday April 11 08:30-10:00 AM)
Final: 40% (Thursday May 10 2:00-5:00 PM)
