sup /sci/
I am starting a /sci/ analysis study group. We will work through either baby rudin, papa rudin, or folland's measure theory text depending on the background level of whoever wants to do this with me. I am a math ph.d student with a masters degree in an analysis heavy field (pde/image processing) so I will be the de facto leader, i.e. I will schedule the skype meetings, readings, and exercises. We will probably meet once a week to discuss the assigned reading and exercises depending on how everyone feels. Skype is usually a good option for this in my experience from the /sci/ category theory study group. Ideally, we will not have more than say 8 people total, however people often drop out from this sort of thing so if we start with 8 we will almost certainly end with less. If you're interested, post here and send an email to [email protected]

These threads get every day more amusing.

I am able to work through any of those texts independently, just thought it would be more effective to include some other people and discuss the material. I have worked through other analysis/measure theory texts at the graduate level. Are you butt blasted because you are a NEET?

why though? imo mathematics is a solitary field, at least until you get to post grad
until then textbooks and solution manuals (available for both baby and papa rudin) should be enough for any hopeful mathematician who is reasonably capable

there's a mythology in mathematics that the best work is done solely by lone geniuses. history shows that mathematics is best done by mixing group discussion/lectures and solitary study/exercises. both is most effective. what i'm suggesting is both, there will be assigned reading and exercises we all try to solve alone, then we discuss the solutions and readings in a group.

Good math is not solitary.

you're talking about the cutting edge of mathematics there mate. even papa rudin is just about 1st year post grad material. there's almost nothing to discuss especially since there are solutions manuals available.

The mythology rings true. Mathematics has the lowest number of authors per paper, and it has barely experienced the trend the other sciences have of ever increasing numbers of authors per paper. Most math papers are still written by 1 or 2 people.

Or better put, the "mythology", since it's a fact. Mathematics is not a group effort.

What? All the posts you quoted are mine dumbass. The link just shows solid evidence for what I said, in case someone would not take my word for it.
