Course content
The topic of the subject is to master the bases of number sets theory, fundamental terms and proper-ties of the differential calculus of real functions of one variable. Course program (syllabus): 1. Basic set and logic notation, number sets. Supremum and infimum of sets. The supremum and infimum theorem. Definitions of mapping, and real function of one real variable, types of mappings. 2. Basic properties of functions (even, odd, periodic, bounded functions, monotony). Arithmetic operations of functions. Composite functions, inverse functions. 3. Elementary functions and its transformations (identical function, power, polynomials, rational function, logarithmic and exponential functions. Trigonometric and cyclometric functions. Signum, absolute value, entire function. 4. Real sequences. Neighbourhood of a point. Definition of a limit of sequences. 5. Theorems about sequences, examples. Euler number. 6. Limit of a function, continuity. Limit and continuity of a composite function. 7. One-sided limits and one-sided continuity of functions. (In)finite limits at (in)finite points. Theorem about the grip function. Limit (sin x) / x for x 0. Asymptotes. 8. Derivative, geometric and physical applications, tangent line to a function. Derivative of a composite function. Derivative of an inverse function. 9. One-sided derivation. Derivatives of a higher order. Differential of a function, relationship with the derivative, applications. 10. Properties of continuous functions on the closed intervals. Mean value theorems. The l Hospital rule. 11. Applications of derivatives to studying of graphs of functions: monotony, local extremes; convexity, and concavity, point of inflexion. 12. Global extremes. Examples. 13. Taylor polynomial. 14. Reserve.
