 4. Lecture notes and Lecture Schedule

The rough lecture schedule is available inside the full SYLLABUS. The typed notes from which I prepare lectures will be inserted below, chapter by chapter, in the order that they will be covered. They are NOT a replacement for the textbook. The handwritten lectures will be uploaded in the folder "Handwritten lectures" in "Files" in Canvas.
