In addition to part I (General Handout for all courses appended to the Time table) this portion gives
further specific details regarding the course.
Course No : MATH F244
Course Title : Measure and Integration
Instructor-in-Charge : RAHUL KUMAR
1. Scope and Objective of the Course: The objective of this course is to give a comprehensive and sound
introduction to measure theory and integration that includes Riemann integration. It includes Lebesgue
measure and integrations, absolutely continuous functions and functions of bounded variation, Lp spaces.
Lebesgue theory of integration is base for study of theory of partial differential equations and in numerical
solution of partial differential and integral equations
