QUALIFYING EXAM in ANALYSIS
Department of Mathematics
University of Wisconsin-Madison
Wednesday, August 18, 2010
Version for emphasis in complex analysis (Math 722)
Instructions:
Do six of the nine questions. To facilitate grading, please use a separate packet of paper for each
question. To receive credit on a problem, you must show your work and justify your conclusions.
The Doctoral Exam Committee proofreads the qualifying exams as carefully as possible. Neverthe-less, this exam may contain typographical errors. If you have any doubts about the interpretationof a problem, please consult with the proctor. If you are convinced that a problem has beenstated incorrectly, mention this to the proctor and indicate your interpretation in your solution.In any case, never interpret a problem in such a way that it becomes trivial.
Notation used on the Analysis exams:
(1) Q, RandCdenote the fields of rational, real and complex numbers, respectively.
(2) IfE Rn is a Lebesgue measurable set, thenE denotes its Lebesgue measure.
(3) If is a positive measure on a set X, and iffis a complex valued measurable function onX, then for 1 p

Problem 1.
LetD Rd, d 2 be a compact convex set with smooth boundary D so that the originbelongs to the interior ofD. For every y D let (x) [0, ) be the angle between the
position vector x and the outer normal vector n
(x). Let d be the surface area of the unitsphere in Rd. Compute1

where d denotes surface measure on D.Provide complete justifications for your computation. Does a reasonable interpretation of
your result hold true ifd= 1?
