This textbook provides a thorough introduction to measure and integration theory, fundamental topics of advanced mathematical analysis. Proceeding at a leisurely, student-friendly pace, the authors begin by recalling elementary notions of real analysis before proceeding to measure theory and Lebesgue integration. Further chapters cover Fourier series, differentiation, modes of convergence, and product measures. Noteworthy topics discussed in the text include Lp spaces, the Radon-Nikody m Theorem, signed measures, the Riesz Representation Theorem, and the Tonelli and Fubini Theorems. This textbook, based on extensive teaching experience, is written for senior undergraduate and beginning graduate students in mathematics. With each topic carefully motivated and hints to more than 300 exercises, it is the ideal companion for self-study or use alongside lecture courses.

This undergraduate textbook offers a self-contained and concise introduction to measure theory and integration. The author takes an approach to integration based on the notion of distribution. This approach relies on deeper properties of the Riemann integral which may not be covered in standard undergraduate courses. It has certain advantages, notably simplifying the extension to "fuzzy" measures, which is one of the many topics covered in the book. This book will be accessible to undergraduate students who have completed a first course in the foundations of analysis. Containing numerous examples as well as fully solved exercises, it is exceptionally well suited for self-study or as a supplement to lecture courses.

One of the first books to be dedicated specifically to metric spaces

Full of worked examples, to get complex ideas across more easily

This book provides a rigorous treatment of multivariable differential and integral calculus. Implicit function theorem and the inverse function theorem based on total derivatives is explained along with the results and the connection to solving systems of equations. There is an extensive treatment of extrema, including constrained extrema and Lagrange multipliers, covering both first order necessary conditions and second order sufficient conditions. The material on Riemann integration in n dimensions, being delicate by its very nature, is discussed in detail. Differential forms and the general Stokes' Theorem are expounded in the last chapter. With a focus on clarity rather than brevity, this text gives clear motivation, definitions and examples with transparent proofs. Much of the material included is published for the first time in textbook form, for example Schwarz' Theorem in Chapter 2 and double sequences and sufficient conditions for constrained extrema in Chapter 4. A wide selection of problems, ranging from simple to more challenging, are included with carefully formed solutions. Ideal as a classroom text or a self study resource for students, this book will appeal to higher level undergraduates in Mathematics.
