Course Description: This course covers the algebra
and geometry of the complex numbers; point sets, sequences and mappings;
analytic functions; elementary functions; differentiation; integration; power
series; the calculus of residues; and applications.
Text: Complex Analysis, by
Objectives: After completing MAT 421 the student will
Prerequisites: MAT 211 and MAT 271 or equivalent with a grade of
"C" or better.
Grades: Grades will be based on three in‑class
full‑period examinations (60% total), a comprehensive final examination
(25%), and quizzes, homework, and other assignments (15%) for the remainder.
The exact grading system for your section is the following: each of the three
full-period exams will be graded on a 100 scale, then the sum of the
scores is divided by 5 and denoted by E. Homework will be collected every
Monday, and each homework is worth 5 points. No late homework will be accepted.
The average of all homework scores is denoted by H.
5
to 10 minutes quizzes will be given in principle every Monday, with the
exception of the review and exam days, and will be graded on a scale from 1 to
5. The average of the quizzes scores is denoted by Q. There are also 5 points
awarded for attendance and class participation, this portion of the grade is
denoted by A. The final exam will be graded out of a maximum possible 200, then the score is divided by 8 and denoted by F.
To
determine your final grade
compute E+H+Q+A+F. The maximum is 100, and the grade will be
given by the rule:
A: 93‑100; A‑: 90‑92; B+: 87‑89; B: 83‑86; B‑: 80‑82
C+: 77‑79; C: 73‑76; C‑: 70‑72; D: 60‑69; F: Less than 60.
Makeups: No makeup examinations or
quizzes will be given. If you must miss an examination for a legitimate reason,
let me know in advance, and I may then substitute the relevant score from your final
examination for the missing grade.
Accomodations for
Students with Disabilities: Cal
State Dominguez Hills adheres to all applicable federal, state, and local laws,
regulations, and guidelines with respect to providing reasonable accommodations
for students with temporary and permanent disabilities. If you have a
disability that may adversely affect your work in this class, I encourage you
to register with Disabled Student Services (DSS) and to talk with me about how
I can best help you. All disclosures of disabilities will be kept strictly
confidential. Please note: no accommodation may be made until you register with
the DSS in WH D180. For information call (310) 243-3660 or to use
telecommunications Device for the Deaf, call (310) 243-2028.
Academic Integrity: The mathematics department does not tolerate cheating.
Students who have questions or concerns about academic integrity should ask
their professors or the counselors in the Student Development Office, or refer
to the University Catalog for more information. (Look in the index under
"academic integrity".)
