This book represents a first course in the theory of metric, normed, and Hilbert spaces, and is intended (i) for mathematicians, physicists, and others who may need only one course that provides the elements of that subject, and (ii) as a foundation for more advanced courses in analysis, topology, and geometry for pure mathematicians. Prerequisites is a knowledge of the basic ideas of limits and continuity.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The core of this book, Chapters three through five, presents a course on metric, normed, and Hilbert spaces at the senior/graduate level. The motivation for each of these chapters is the generalisation of a particular attribute of the n Euclidean space R: in Chapter 3, that attribute is distance; in Chapter 4, length; and in Chapter 5, inner product. In addition to the standard topics that, arguably, should form part of the armoury of any graduate student in mathematics, physics, mathematical economics, theoretical statistics, . . , this part of the book contains many results and exercises that are seldom found in texts on analysis at this level. Examples of the latter are Wongs Theorem (3.3.12) showing that the Lebesgue covering property is equivalent to the uniform continuity property, and Motzkins result (5. 2. 2) that a nonempty closed subset of Euclidean space has the unique closest point property if and only if it is convex. The sad reality today is that, perceiving them as one of the harder parts of their mathematical studies, students contrive to avoid analysis courses at almost any cost, in particular that of their own educational and technical deprivation. Many universities have at times capitulated to the negative demand of students for analysis courses and have seriously watered down their expectations of students in that area. As a result, mathematics majors are graduating, sometimes with high honours, with little exposure to anything but a rudimentary course or two on real and complex analysis, often without even an introduction to the Lebesgue integral. The sad reality today is that, perceiving them as one of the harder parts of their mathematical studies, students contrive to avoid analysis courses at almost any cost, in particular that of their own educational and technical deprivation.
