The class aims at providing students with the knowledge of the basic notions regarding real functions of one real variables and ordinary differential equations. The purpose of the class is that students acquire and know how to use an appropriate mathematical language in relation to topics covered in the course. The educational goal of this class is to develop the ability to apply this knowledge in solving problems theoretic problems of various types.

Mathematics skills common to all secondary school curricula.

The lessons will take place through lectures on the blackboard. In addition to the theoretical lessons, classroom exercises will be carried out by the teacher with the involvement of the students to delve into the topics covered during the theoretical lessons. The concepts covered by the course will be discussed collectively in the classroom and applied directly during classroom exercises to stimulate the students' critical sense and autonomy of judgment.

Students with physical disabilities, Learning Disabilities or Special
Education Needs can request specific services and tools via the Staff

Students with disabilities, learning disabilities or special education
needs, once they have contacted the University Staff, can refer to the
tutor in charge of the course to define the examination modalities,
concerning academic aspects.

The exam consists of a written test and an oral exam. The written test consists of exercises related to the syllabus covered during class and lasts two hours. Each exercise carries a maximum score for a total of 30, and the grade is calculated by adding the points received, which reflect the accuracy of the exam. Students who achieve a score of 16/30 on the written test are admitted to the oral exam. The oral exam consists of a discussion based on the written test and is intended to assess the knowledge and skills actually acquired. The exam results highlight the student's understanding of theoretical concepts and their ability to use them to solve new problems. Excellence is achieved if the knowledge and skills acquired are comprehensive and thorough.

Basics on set theory. Numeric sets, construction of the real numbers, complex numbers. Functions, composition between functions, injectivity, surjectivity, bijectivity, invertibility. Real sequences, limit of a sequence and classical theorems. Limit of a real function of one real variable; right limit and left limit; classical theorems. Continuity for real functions of one real variable; basic properties and classical results. Differential Calculus for real functions of one real variable; fundamental theorems; Taylor developments. Local maxima and minima; monotonicity of a function and first derivative; convex and concave functions and second derivative. Riemann integral: classical theorems and integral calculus. Numeric series and power series. Basics on ordinary differential equations.

Knowledge and understanding: at the end of the course the student must know the basic notions of Mathematical Analysis in one real variable (functions in one variable, limits, derivatives, integrals). Ability to apply knowledge and understanding: the student must have developed a mastery of the learned notions allowing to connect them independently and to use them jointly in solving simple theoretical problems. Ability to communicate what has been learned: the student must be able to clearly explain both the concepts themselves and their use in general terms or in the specific case of a problem.
