Intermediate Mathematical Analysis aims at presenting advanced topics such as continuity, uniform continuity, tests of convergence of series, uniform convergence of series, power series, polynomial approximations and Fourier series in a more general setting. Metric and Normed Linear Spaces are introduced at an early stage and are used wherever found advantageous. The book places a consistent emphasis on showing the power of the classical analysis by applying it to the study of real valued functions and their applications. Requiring only a nodding acquaintance with ? – d type arguments and definition of Riemann integral, the book will provide sufficient background material for studies in Functional Analysis, Topology, Complex Analysis, Theory of Differential Equations and so on.

• • Theorems are proved in complete details and illustrated profusely using examples and counter examples • About hundred illustrations and four hundred exercises, most of which have hints or solutions at the end of the book • End of the chapter projects to challenge ambitious readers
