Instead, the notion of completeness is of preeminent importance. Silly gimmicks are of no significance at all. Routine skills involving elementary functions and integration techniques are supposed to be mastered and have no place in advanced calculus which deals with the fundamental issues related to existence and meaning. This is a subject which places calculus as part of mathematics and involves proofs and definitions, not algorithms and busy work. An orderly development of the elementary functions is included but it is assumed the reader is familiar enough with these functions to use them in problems which illustrate some of the ideas presented. 7 8 CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION Chapter 2 The Real And Complex Numbers 2.1 The Number Line And Algebra Of The Real Num- bers To begin with, consider the real numbers, denoted by R, as a line extending infinitely far in both directions. In this book, the notation, ≡ indicates something is being defined. Thus the integers are defined as Z ≡ {· · · − 1; 0; 1; · · · g ; the natural numbers, N ≡ f1; 2; · · · g and the rational numbers, defined as the numbers which are the quotient of two integers. n o m Q ≡ such that m; n 2 Z; n =6 0 n are each subsets of R as indicated in the following picture. −4 −3 −2 −1 0 1 2 3 4 - 1=2 1 As shown in the picture, 2 is half way between the number 0 and the number, 1: By analogy, you can see where to place all the other rational numbers. It is assumed that R has the following algebra properties, listed here as a collection of assertions called axioms. These properties will not be proved which is why they are called axioms rather than theorems. In general, axioms are statements which are regarded as true. Often these are things which are \self evident" either from experience or from some sort of intuition but this does not have to be the case. Axiom 2.1.1 x + y = y + x; (commutative law for addition) Axiom 2.1.2 x + 0 = x; (additive identity). 9 10 CHAPTER 2. THE REAL AND COMPLEX NUMBERS Axiom 2.1.3 For each x 2 R; there exists −x 2 R such that x + (−x) = 0; (existence of additive inverse). Axiom 2.1.4 (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ; (associative law for addition). Axiom 2.1.5 xy = yx; (commutative law for multiplication). Axiom 2.1.6 (xy) z = x (yz) ; (associative law for multiplication). Axiom 2.1.7 1x = x; (multiplicative identity). Axiom 2.1.8 For each x =6 0; there exists x−1 such that xx−1 = 1:(existence of multi- plicative inverse). Axiom 2.1.9 x (y + z) = xy + xz:(distributive law). These axioms are known as the field axioms and any set (there are many others besides R) which has two such operations satisfying the above axioms is called a field. Division( ) and subtraction are defined in the usual way by x − y ≡ x + (−y) and x=y ≡ x y−1 : It is assumed that the reader is completely familiar with these axioms in the sense that he or she can do the usual algebraic manipulations taught in high school and junior high algebra courses. The axioms listed above are just a careful statement of exactly what is necessary to make the usual algebraic manipulations valid. A word of advice regarding division and subtraction is in order here. Whenever you feel a little confused about an algebraic expression which involves division or subtraction, think of division as multiplication by the multiplicative inverse as just indicated and think( of) subtraction as addition of the additive inverse. Thus, when you see x=y; think x y−1 and when you see x − y; think x + (−y) : In many cases the source of confusion will disappear almost magically. The reason for this is that subtraction and division do not satisfy the associative law. This means there
