 The YouTube channel of Brunei Math Club is at:

https://www.youtube.com/c/BruneiMathClub

where you can find lecture videos of the modules that I teach at UBD (Universiti Brunei Darussalam) and some other random math-related pieces.

Below is the list of playlists that are currently actively being updated:

I'm planning to post lecture notes of these videos on this blog.

Open sets and closed sets in \(\mathbb{R}^n\)

Open sets In \(\mathbb{R}\), we have the notion of an open interval such as \((a, b) = \{x \in \mathbb{R} | a < x < b\}\). We want to extend this idea to apply to \(\mathbb{R}^n\). We also introduce the notions of bounded sets and closed sets in \(\mathbb{R}^n\). Recall that the \(\varepsilon\)-neighbor of a point \(x\in\mathbb{R}^n\) is defined as \(N_{\varepsilon}(x) = \{y \in \mathbb{R}^n | d(x, y) < \varepsilon \}\) where \(d(x,y)\) is the distance between \(x\) and \(y\). Definition (Open set) A subset \(U\) of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) is said to be an  open set  if the following holds: \[\forall x \in U ~ \exists \delta > 0 ~ (N_{\delta}(x) \subset U).\tag{Eq:OpenSet}\] That is, for every point in an open set \(U\), we can always find an open ball centered at that point, that is included in \(U\). See the following figure. Perhaps, it is instructive to see what is  not  an open set. Negating (Eq:OpenSet), we have \[\exists x \in U ~ \forall \delta > 0 ~ (N_{\delta}(x) \not

Euclidean spaces

We would like to study multivariate functions (i.e., functions of many variables), continuous multivariate functions in particular. To define continuity, we need a measure of "closeness" between points. One measure of closeness is the Euclidean distance. The set \(\mathbb{R}^n\) (with \(n \in \mathbb{N}\)) with the Euclidean distance function is called a Euclidean space. This is the space where our functions of interest live. The real line is a geometric representation of \(\mathbb{R}\), the set of all real numbers. That is, each \(a \in \mathbb{R}\) is represented as the point \(a\) on the real line. The coordinate plane , or the \(x\)-\(y\) plane , is a geometric representation of \(\mathbb{R}^2\), the set of all pairs of real numbers. Each pair of real numbers \((a, b)\) is visualized as the point \((a, b)\) in the plane. Remark . Recall that \(\mathbb{R}^2 = \mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R} = \{(x, y) | x, y \in \mathbb{R}\}\) is the Cartesian product of \(\mathbb{R}\) with i

Applications of multiple integrals

We can use multiple integrals to compute areas and volumes of various shapes. Area of a planar region Definition (Area) Let \(D\) be a bounded closed region in \(\mathbb{R}^2\). \(D\) is said to have an area if the multiple integral of the constant function 1 over \(D\), \(\iint_Ddxdy\), exists. Its value is denoted by \(\mu(D)\): \[\mu(D) = \iint_Ddxdy.\] Example . Let us calculate the area of the disk \(D = \{(x,y)\mid x^2 + y^2 \leq a^2\}\). Using the polar coordinates, \(x = r\cos\theta, y = r\sin\theta\), \(dxdy = rdrd\theta\), and the ranges of \(r\) and \(\theta\) are \([0, a]\) and \([0, 2\pi]\), respectively. Thus, \[\begin{eqnarray*} \mu(D) &=& \iint_Ddxdy\\ &=&\int_0^a\left(\int_0^{2\pi}rd\theta\right)dr\\ &=&2\pi\int_0^a rdr\\ &=&2\pi\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_0^a = \pi a^2. \end{eqnarray*}\] □ Volume of a solid figure Definition (Volume) Let \(V\) be a solid figure in the \((x,y,z)\) space \(\mathbb{R}^3\). \(V\) is sai
