Mathematical English
Description: The main goal of this course is to discuss the kind of writing that is
appropriate in a research mathematical paper submitted for publication
in a mathematical journal.
We plan to start this course by discussing the general structure
of a mathematical article. Then, we shall explain the basic rules and requirements
for Mathematical writing giving some specific recommendations.
Language: Lectures will be given in English.
Intended Audience: The course is designed for graduate students. 4th grade students
are also invited to attend the course.
Recommended prerequisites: General mathematics, basic English grammar and mathematics vocabulary.
