Course content
Lectures: 1. Basic notions of measure theory: sigma algebra, measure space, measurable functions, steps functions. 2. Integral of step functions, the L1 -completion. 3. Properties of integral. 4. Exchange of the limit and the integral: Fatou's lemma, Levi's and Lebesg's theorems (monotone convergence, dominated convergence). 5. Extension of measures from algebras to sigma algebras. 6. Product measures and Fubini's theorem. 7. Integral and measures in R, relations of the Lebesgue, Newton and Riemann integrals. 8. Distribution functions, the Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure. 9. Lebesgue's measure and integral in Rn. 10. Change of variable formula. 11. Curves, orientation. 12. Curve integrals of the first and second kinds. 13. Green's theorem. Independence of the curve integral on the path. 14. Reserve. Exercises are devoted to practise the subject introduced at the last week lecture.

Learning outcomes
The subject is an introduction to measure and integral theory. The student will become familiar with abstract spaces with measure and subsequently with Lebesgue outer measure and Lebesgue measure. Subsequently, the Lebesgue integral over an abstract space with measure is defined and its basic properties are derived (monotonicity, linearity, limit theorems (Fatou's, Levi's and Lebesgue's), Fubini's theorem). The student will also become familiar with Lebesgue function spaces and their basic properties (completeness, reflexivity, etc...). Next, basic relations between L^p norms, H?older's inequality and dual spaces to L^p (Riesz's theorem) are discussed.
Basic properties of measure theory and abstract integration on measure spaces. These are convenient tools for a futher study of mathematical analysis, probability theory and applications.
