Covers the concepts essential for a modern analyst

Royden's Real Analysis has contributed to educating generations of mathematical analysis students. The 5th Edition of this classic text presents some important updates while presenting measure theory, integration theory and elements of metric, topological, Hilbert and Banach spaces. An undergraduate course on the fundamental concepts of analysis is assumed.

Hallmark features of this title

  • Independent, modular chapters give instructors flexibility to cover material to suit course needs.
  • Understanding of the linkages between the text's parts is fostered throughout.
  • Problems range from those that confirm understanding of basic results and ideas to those that are quite challenging; many problems foreshadow future developments.

New and updated features of this title

  • Updated and reordered presentation:
    • What was formerly in Part II is placed in Part III and a brief Part IV. This brings measure and integration on Euclidean space closer to their origin, the case of real variables.
    • It also presents the opportunity to foreshadow, in the context of general measure and integration, concepts which later appear in general spaces.
  • Somewhat simpler proofs of the Vitali Covering Lemma and Lebesgue's theorem on the differentiability almost everywhere of a monotone function are provided in Part I.
