GRADUATE COURSES
|
Prerequisites: Graduate standing. MATH 4333 or MATH 4378
Additional Prerequisites: students should be comfortable with basic measure theory, groups rings and fields, and point-set topology |
|
Text(s): No textbook is required.
|
|
Description: Topics from the theory of groups, rings, fields, and modules.
Additional Description: This is primarily a course about analysis on topological groups. The aim is to explain how many of the techniques from classical and harmonic analysis can be extended to the setting of locally compact groups (i.e. groups possessing a locally compact topology which is compatible with their algebraic structure). In the first part of the course we will review basic point set topology and introduce the concept of a topological group. The examples of p-adic numbers and the Adeles will be presented in detail, and we will also spend some time discussing SL_2(R). Next we will talk about characters on topological groups, Pontryagin duality, Haar measure, the Fourier transform, and the inversion formula. We will focus on developing details in specific groups (including those mentioned above), and applications to ergodic theory and to number theory will be discussed. |
