The purpose of this book is to provide an integrated course in real
and complex analysis for those who have already taken a preliminary
course in real analysis. It particularly emphasises the interplay
between analysis and topology. Beginning with the theory of the
Riemann integral (and its improper extension) on the real line, the
fundamentals of metric spaces are then developed, with special
attention being paid to connectedness, simple connectedness and
various forms of homotopy. The final chapter develops the theory of
complex analysis, in which emphasis is placed on the argument, the
winding number, and a general (homology) version of Cauchy's
theorem which is proved using the approach due to Dixon. Special
features are the inclusion of proofs of Montel's theorem, the
Riemann mapping theorem and the Jordan curve theorem that arise
naturally from the earlier development. Extensive exercises are
included in each of the chapters, detailed solutions of the
majority of which are given at the end. From Real to Complex
Analysis is aimed at senior undergraduates and beginning graduate
students in mathematics. It offers a sound grounding in analysis;
in particular, it gives a solid base in complex analysis from which
progress to more advanced topics may be made.
