Study Notes
MSC Hierarchical Scheme
- The first level in the MSC hierarchical scheme is represented by a two-digit number from 00 to 99.
- The MSC is based on two major mathematical reviewing databases: Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt MATH.
- The MSC hierarchical scheme has three levels of structure.
- A classification in the MSC hierarchical scheme can be up to five characters long (e.g., 00A00).
- The current version of the Mathematics Subject Classification is MSC2020.
Real Analysis
- Real analysis is a branch of mathematics that studies the properties and behavior of real-valued functions and sequences.
- It involves the study of properties such as convergence, continuity, and differentiability of real-valued sequences and functions.
- Real analysis is distinguished from complex analysis in that it only deals with real-valued functions, whereas complex analysis deals with functions that have complex numbers as input and output.
- The real number system consists of all rational and irrational numbers, including algebraic and transcendental numbers.
