Can anyone give me links with supplementary notes and problem sets for math 55? Of course I'm no harvard student, I'm just a physics major with an interest in math. Thanks in advance! ^_^
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What is math 55? At my undergraduate institution that was roughly algebra I. At harvard it is apparently honors complex analysis, algebra, real analysis.
 
I'm talking about the course given at harvard
 
Why would they take down the problem sets?
 
No idea... That guy's faculty page is hit or miss for old stuff. I have been using a lot of it for my independent study, but noticed some of it was taken down. You can still see the reading schedule, syllabus, etc. for the classes. The only thing that is taken down are the .pdf's of the homework/solutions and sometimes the exams. But the links I gave you should have all of the content... the webpage is just ugly :biggrin:.
