200 points Final Exam 10:15 Wednesday 18 March 2015

An incomplete can be assigned when the quality of work is satisfactory but a minor yet essential requirement of the course has not been completed for reasons acceptable to the instructor (NOTE: this grade requires a contract to be completed). According to faculty legislation, final exams may not be given early under any circumstances. Your final grade will be assigned on the basis of the total point score of 500 points. Any student getting at least a B on the final will receive at least a C- in the course; no student can pass the course unless they receive a grade of D or better on the final exam. You must bring your photo ID to all exams. You may bring a 3x5 inch index card with any formulas on it to any exam or quiz if you wish. Similarly, you may bring with you a hand held graphing calculator to any exam or quiz if you wish.

Course objective The course serves as a transition between the computationally oriented calculus sequences (Math 251/2/3 and Math 281/2) and some of the more theoretically oriented 400 level courses (the analysis sequence Math 413/4/5 and the complex variables sequence Math 412/3 come to mind as exemplars). More importantly, it serves as an entry into proof based mathematics supplementing the course on proof theory (Math 307). The course will begin with an introduction to the basics - natural numbers, rational numbers, real numbers. A rigorous treatment of limits (sequential limits, monotone sequences, cauchy sequences, subsequences, limit points, lim sup, lim inf etc) will be given. A brief introduction to metric spaces will be given (compactness, connectedness, etc). Alternating series and integral tests will be discussed. Continuity, compactness, uniform continuity, and limits of functions will be discussed. If time permits, power series and L'Hospital's rule will be treated. At this stage in their mathematical education, students should be familiar with the mechanics of calculus. What this course will stress are the rigorous foundations of the subject - there will be lots of epsilon-delta proofs.

Learning Outcomes Students must be able to demonstrate an understanding of the nature of mathematical proof by proving various assertions concerning limits. They should be able to not only calculate but prove their answer for various limits (sequential limits, monotone sequences, cauchy sequences, subsequences, limit points, lim sup, lim inf etc). They should be able to give proofs related to compactness, connectedness, etc. as well as to compute and prove the correctness of the calculations using the alternating series test, the integral test, and other tests. They should be able to give proofs that deal with continuity, compactness, uniform continuity, and limits of functions. What is crucial is the ability to give rigorous proofs of the epsilon-delta sort.

Mathematics Department Undergraduate Grading Standards November 2011 There are two important issues that this grading policy recognizes.

• (1) Mathematics is hierarchical. A student who is given a grade of C or higher in a course must have mastery of that material that allows the possibility of succeeding in courses for which that course is a prerequisite.
• (2) Some mathematics courses are primarily concerned with techniques and applications. In such courses student success is measured by the student's ability to model , successfully apply the relevant technique, and bring the calculation to a correct conclusion. The department's 100-level courses and most calculus courses are examples in this category although these are not the only examples. Other courses are primarily concerned with theoretical structures and proof. In such courses student success is measured by the student's ability to apply the theorems and definitions in the subject, and to create proofs on his or her own using the models and ideas taught during the course. Many courses are partly hybrids incorporating both techniques and applications, and some element of theory. Some lean more toward applications, others more toward theory. This course has both applications and theory.

• A: Consistently chooses appropriate models, uses correct techniques, and carries calculations through to a correct answer. Able to estimate error when appropriate, and able to recognize conditions needed to apply models as appropriate.
• B: Usually chooses appropriate models and uses correct techniques, and makes few calculational errors. Able to estimate error when prompted, and able to recognize conditions needed to apply models when prompted.
• C: Makes calculations correctly or substantially correctly, but requires guidance on choosing models and technique. Able to estimate error when prompted and able to recognize conditions needed to apply models when prompted.
• D: Makes calculations correctly or substantially correctly, but unable to do modeling.
• F: Can neither choose appropriate models, or techniques, nor carry through calculations.

Rubric for pure courses:

• A: Applies the important theorems from the course. Constructs counterexamples when hypotheses are weakened. Constructs complete and coherent proofs using the definitions, ideas and theorems from the course. Applies ideas from the course to construct proofs that the student has not seen before.
• B: Applies the important theorems from the course. Constructs counterexamples when hypotheses are weakened. Constructs complete and coherent proofs using the definitions, ideas and theorems from the course.
• C: Applies the important theorems from the course when the application is direct. Constructs simple proofs using the de nitions when there are very few steps between the de nitions and the conclusions. Explains most important counterexamples.
• D: Can do some single step proofs and explain some counterexamples.
• F: Unable to do even single step proofs or correctly use de nitions.

Many courses combine pure and applied elements and the rubrics for those courses will have some combination of elements from the two rubrics above. Detailed interpretation of the rubrics depends on the content and level of the course and will be at the discretion of instructors. Whether to award grades of A+ is at the discretion of instructors.

Academic dishonesty

Title IX Under Title IX, I have a duty to report relevant information. The UO is committed to providing an environment free of all forms of prohibited discrimination and sexual harassment, including sexual assault, domestic and dating violence and gender-based stalking. Any UO employee who becomes aware that such behavior is occurring has a duty to report that information to their supervisor or the Office of Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity. The University Health Center and University Counseling and Testing Center can provide assistance and have a greater ability to work confidentially with students. Note: UO employees also have a duty to report child abuse. For those classes and/or processes in which students have historically reported information regarding child abuse, the language can be expanded to provide that notice as well by adding the following statement: All UO employees are required to report to appropriate authorities when they have reasonable cause to believe that any child with whom they come in contact has suffered abuse or any person with whom they come in contact has abused a child.

Ethical Standards

1. ORS Chapter 244, which codifies ethics and conflict of interest policies that you are required to follow as you conduct University of Oregon business. See the guide for public officials here.
2. The Oregon University System (OUS) has a responsibility to prevent and detect fraud, waste, and abuse and to hold accountable those who engage in it. The OUS Fraud, Waste, and Abuse policy sets forth guidelines for reporting known or suspected fraud, waste, or abuse within any OUS institution.
3. If you are aware of fraud, waste, or abuse occurring at the UO or within the OUS, matters can be reported to campus management, OUS Internal Audit Division, or OUS Financial Concerns Hotline. Additional information is also available on the UO Business Affairs and UO vice president for finance and administration webpages.
4. The OUS information security policy and UO information security policy set forth your responsibilities relating to the security of electronic information systems and confidentiality of data. A more comprehensive listing of state laws and rules that guide our operations is available here.
5. The UO will continue a similar focus on these important issues under our new governance structure. We will communicate any changes to reporting protocols after July 1. We are all responsible for understanding and complying with ORS 244, applicable government regulations and policies. We also have a responsibility to raise compliance and ethics concerns through established channels. I appreciate your commitment to integrity and honesty, as it is an essential element in maintaining an ethical and secure UO workplace environment for everyone.

Statement on Final Exams

2. Take-home examinations will be due no earlier than the day of the formally assigned final examination for the class in question.

This action clarifies and extends earlier faculty legislation (1911 Faculty Assembly archives) prohibiting the giving of final examinations earlier than officially scheduled.

In addition, you should be aware of the Faculty Advisory CouncilÕs statement on students with multiple exams:

Examination schedules are listed each term in the Time Schedule. Students who are scheduled to take more than three examinations within one calendar day may take the additional examination(s) as makeup examination(s) later in the examination week. The instructor(s) of record for the course(s) beyond the third examination, counting in the order the examination(s) are scheduled, will arrange for (a) makeup examination(s).

The following procedures were approved by the Undergraduate Council to address rare circumstances of competing exam times. Students with examination conflicts may contact the Office of Academic Advising for assistance.

In the case of two examinations scheduled at the same time, the course with the largest enrollment must provide an alternate examination. For conflicts between regular courses and combined examinations, the combined examination course must provide the alternate examination. For combined examinations with conflicts, the largest combined enrollment course must provide the alternative examination.

Questions and concerns regarding this policy should be directed first to the relevant instructor, then the department head, and finally the dean if necessary. You may also find reference to the policy on the Academic Affairs website. If additional input is needed, please contact srviceprovost@uoregon.edu.

To rest on the blue of the day, like an eagle rests on the wind, over the cold range, confident on its wings and its breadth.
