25:50 w+1 (omega plus one) is not the supremum of the set of all ordinals less than w+1, as he says. The set of all ordinals less than w+1 is w+1 itself and its supremum is its (great) union, which is just w, not w+1. Note that w+1 contains w while the union of w+1 does not contain w, since no member of w+1 contains w. Successor ordinals are never their own suprema, only limit ordinals are.
Yes, in fact, an ordinal is a limit ordinal if and only if it is equal to its union and an ordinal is a successor ordinal if and only if it is equal to the successor of its union.
@@jidrit999 haha sorry, I just meant I had finished the last lecture and was sad to not have any more math content from him. To best of my knowledge he's still alive and well!
Professor Su is an excellent lecturer. He presents the sometimes dense material in a clear way. I hope he will issue some further lectures on related subjects. There is a lack of a good video course on complex analysis.
0:41:39 Frédéric Ouimet, one year ago: In defining inductive sets. it's not necessary to say that they must contain 0. It's enough to say that if everything less than n is in the set, then n is also in the set, for all n. Just as he defines. Since there is nothing less than 0 in the ordinals, everything less than 0 is in any set, hence 0 is in any inductive set so defined. Remember that any conditional with false antecedent is true; 'if m is less than 0, then m is in S' is true for any m and any S, because the antecedent is always false.

Jagwaseni Banerjee I didn’t. I ended up just taking the second half of the course at university. For self study, I would recommend just going through Rudin on your own (and asking for help on math stack when you get stuck). The solutions for Rudin’s Principles of Mathematical Analysis are available online. Good luck!
@@porterhowland8655 okay actually I have no mentor or guide or professor at this moment so I don't know if I am capable of learning from Rudin on my own. A little self doubt issues here..😅😅 I will try my best though. Thank for replying. Good luck to you too.😊
Jagwaseni Banerjee good luck man! I can sympathize, because I’ve been in similar situations before: wanting to learn a subject, but don’t have anyone I can get help from when I’m stuck. Just try your best and see how far you get. ;)
On your proof by contradiction of strong induction: "if the least element n not in A is in N then there is an Sn that is in N that is also in A, therefore, n is in A." What if n is equal to 0, or whatever, such that it has no predecessor in N. Then there would be no Sn in A that comes before it.
I don't really understand the induction step of the transfinite induction example. Can someone explain how we verify that K_α satisfies the smiley conditions?
It is a great lecture. It is more instructive than all papers I have seen around but I still do not understand why w*w != w (owing to uncommunativity, like 2*w was exaplained) and how can you count the uncountable?
Valentin Tihomirov It’s an ambiguous convention to adopt the meaning that w*w = w^2 which is no less ambiguous. But, the limit definition of w^2 is not ambiguous, and instead of choosing the x*w definition of multiplication it simply chooses the w*x convention. Thus w*w = w*x where x = w. I know it’s silly but that’s it. Notice, this means you have omega groups of omega. So, to visualize the set and it’s ordinal you have to visualize omega many sets of omega, or omega many sets of N, the natural numbers. This is a countable set. I’m not sure what the associated cardinal number for this set is but there is one.
Prof Su. I think i'm not the first one to say but what the hell happened to Analysis 2 lectures?. dont get me wrong. You did a fine and noble job but this is plain co*& teasing:)! kidding... but seriously man, if you have them recorded, please upload them. Its been 4 years..And i hope the quality is much better ...Finger crossed. Thanks!
Thumbs up if you watched through all of the lectures!
Thank you HMC and Professor Su!

Be careful: he makes the same mistake again at 34:11.

I thought of this too. This property only holds for limit ordinals.
gonna miss you Professor Francis Su 😢

this is a phenomenal lecture series! professor su is one of the best math lecturers i've ever seen, bravo!

Presenting dense material to dense learners... :p
Thank you for the lectures, Professor. It has been a pleasure!
Prof. Su's lectures on Analysis I are really great. Hope that he will provide video lectures of Analysis II.
Navid Noroozi his lectures on analysis 2 completely flopped, they were terrible...
@@newkid9807 where did you find them?
There is no link for analysis II please
great set of lectures, hoping to see more lectures such as real analysis 2, complex analysis etc
Love watching this first thing in the morning with a cup of coffee. ~smiles
Oh my god! Please give us analysis 2!
(or anything with Professor F. Su!)

Thanks so much Prof Su! I made it all the way through and I'm glad I did. The lectures were very high quality! Brian, HMC class of 1989
prof. Fransic su thanks for all real analysis lectures,hopefully we will see u in real analysis-2
Did you find any lectures on topics of analysis-2? From Prof Su or any other professors?
18:50
S(a) = { a U {a} } rather than S(a) = a U {a} ???
Please, someone would help me. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing video!
Thanks Dr Francis, thanks to you I got an A in analysis 1. Waiting for the videos in Analysis 2.

MORE ANALYSIS LECTURES PLEASE!!
Hot Pepper Lala he is done when he says so!
Thank you so much
thank you！and why there is no analysis II，i cant finish second half of baby rudin😂
叶笑 because you’re an asshat
yes he forgot to mention 1 (or 0) has to be in A for it to be inductive
thanks
OMG there is more!
Doesn't it just become complex or functional analysis?
Amazing video，Glad I've make it to the end
Please tell me which textbook he teaches from.
Thanks
