Preface

1 am happy to welcome to the Faculty of Mathematics all those studcnts who arc enrolling for the B.Math. degree for the first time, and to welcome back those people who are now in tlleir sccond or later years of study. I hope that we in the Faculty of J\'fathematics wil1 have the pleasure of extending this welcome, cvcntu~l1y, to at least some of the readers of this Handbook who may be undecided on their exact course of study, but who arc interested in smue field of mathematics and are prepared to consider enrolment in our Faculty. If any information which you seek is not obviously contained in these pages, or if you simply have general questions about yeur course of study or about aspects of mathernatic~;. please accept a standing invitation to discllss your questiollS with me. I expect thal a]l 111cmbcrs of the academic staff of the Faculty will be similarly able to help you with these questions.

Your desire to study routhematics is, I hope, based on the conviction that Inathcmatics will be the most enjoyable of all those disciplines open to you--thcre can be 110

better reason. H you enjoy mathematics you will welcome the demands it makes upon you and your studies will be Inost rewarding. 1 would like to cOl1llnend to you the essay on Mathematics by Professor E. C. Zeeman in the book University Choice (edited by Klaus Boehm) Pl'. 261-270, Penguin 1966.

Although Faculties of Jvlathenlatics are not Ul1COmlnOn overseas, particularly in universities which have been founded within the last twenty years, the Faculty of lVlathematics at the University of Newcastle was the first in Australia. This lead has now been followed by several other Australian universities.

It is probabJy still true that the most COmlUOl1 location for Departments cOJlcerned with ll1athclnatics in universities world-wide is in a Faculty of Science, This is an hbtorical reflection of the fact that Inathenwtics has been nssnciated most closely with scientific subjects, particularly the physical sciences, and has played a crucial part in their development, in the last 150 years, Before this period, Faculties of arts were the mo:-,t C0I1111lO11 homes for mathematics in universities, again for good historical reasons. The l'ch!tivcly recent arrival of l-:"acultic~; of Mathematics on the scene is evidence of thc increa~j1Jg recognition of a more modern fact: that mathcrnatics m!CI the use of mathematical Janguage aIld ideas have a place in a1J unjversity studies, and are Dot exclusive to anyone area. 'The iJest way in \vhlch we can do justice to this universality is to exist in n distinct Faculty of Ivlathematks having intcl1ectual links with all other disciplines.

Tn Ne\vcrlstlc \YC have given practical effect to these links by intl\.l(l11cillg programmes of study which lead to the award of the B.Math degree tugether with other first der,rees of the University. The other fields with which combined degree programmes have been available since 1975 are Arts, Science, Metallurgy and Commerce. 1'.1ore recently, we have put into effect arrangements for c01llbincd degree programmes ''lith Engilleering a11d \'lith Economics. The details of the joint degree COUIses which arc available this year a 1",; given ill the ~cction of this f bnclbook which begins ~rt

page 18.

The distinctive position that the l~'acu1ty of :M-athcmatics occupies has advantages for all students with an interest in mathematics who wish to work townrds a single degree. For those whose tastes arc \,pccifically l11athcmatical, the advantages scarcely need allY special comment. 1::"01' other people, who Inay realise the need for mathematical study [15 an adjunct to their principal subjects, we provide a variety of courfies, as set out in the fl)llcnvillg par,es. 'Vc are ahvays :tt1cntive 10 the advanc.es in l1wthcmat1cs and related subjects which Jl1ay make IlC\V or revised courses :necessary; evidence of this is C:1~Y t() find front a comparison of Ule contents of the proscn! Ifandbook with the contellts of previolls editions.

l"';ot all the areas of mathematical work which are of importa11ce to the Faculty have the word 1<1n:1tllcmatics'~ in their titles. Operations research (Hthe rnathematical description of what actually happens! rather them of W113t ought to happen", according to one of the originator,s of the subject) is OlIC example. '1'wo others, ill which the

Faculty's activity ig being expanded substantially at present, are statistics and computer science. For several years the Faculty has offered a postgraduate Diploma in Computer Science, and in 1977 it introduced the undergraduate subject Computer Science II. Our range of undergraduate studies in computer science was completed in 1978 by tho presentation of the new subject Computer Science III. A similar extension of our undergraduate otrerings in statistics in being provided in 1979 with the introduction of Statistics III. Hoth of these areas, of course, provide points of contact between l1mthcmatics and many other subjects. For that reason, nlatllCnlaticians with special knowledge of C01nputer science or of statistics can expect to be citizens whose special skills will always be in demand.

University education is not merely a question of attending courses. The University provides an enviromnent in which your self?education can take place. Natnrally, courses arc part of the environment, but not the whole of it. The lecturer and the laboratory are not the only sources of information; you can reasonably expect to gain as much frorn discussions, debates and arguments with your fellow-students as from them, because this type of interaction allows you to tryout on other people with similar concerns your ideas about what you are learning. By "learning" I mean your appreciation of how the material you meet in your formal courses fits into a wider understanding of the world and of its problems. If yon see your University education in this light, you can deduce that you should take every opportunity to broaden your outlook while you are here. 'l'he various student dubs and associations in the University provide one type of opportunity. There is another opportunity in the wide range of interests of your fellow-students; it is a better policy to find your friends and acquaintances at the University in a variety of studies than to confint!l yourself to lneeting only with people whose courses arc the same as yours.

1 repeat lilY earlier welcDme to you all, and wish you an enjoyable and constructive stay at the University.

(1) Under By<olaw 1) it i,; required that i! full"time student :;ball havc passed at leost four subjects at the end of the second year of attendance.

(2.) Under By~law 5.4.2.2(7.) it is required that a part .. time student shall have passed at least four subjects at the end of the fmlrlh year of attendance.

(3) The Faculty Hoard will review all cascs of students, who have failed 10 pass at least four subjects after one full-lime and two pmHime years, and may take actioll under By-law 5.4.1.2.

(4) The Faculty Board will review all cases of students, whether part~tirrw or full-tirne, who in their first year of attendance have a record of: complete failurc and may take actiou under By-law 5.4.1.2.

(5) Unless there are .justifying rca sons, failure in a cowpu!:mry sub­ject for the second time automatically excludes a student from that subject under By,law 5.4.2.1 and exclusion from a compul., sory subjcct autornatically cxdudes a student from thc dcgree course. The compulsory subjects am Mathematics I, J'vlalhcmatics HA, Mathematics He and Mathematies IlIA.

The subjects Computer Science II and III are taught and exmninBd joinHy by the Depm'tmenls of Electrical Engineering, Commerce and Ma:tlrematics. In Computer Sdence II, there is 1m choice of topics.

Progressive Assessment From time [0 time during the year students will be given assign<· mcnts, tests, etc, Th(~ student's performance in (his work will be taken into account in the following manner. (a) For the implementation of By,law 5.4.1.1 which deal~ with

unsatisfactory progress. A copy of this By-law appears in the Gener(ll Supplement supplied with this Handbook.

(ll) Where a student's performance during the year has been better than his perfonnance in thelinal examination, then the former will be taken into account in determining his final result. On the ol11e1" hand, when a student's performance during the year has been worse tban his performance in the final examination, then his performance during the year will be ignored in determining his final result.

This course will interest science, mathematics and engineering students who arc in1crested in the theoretical foundations of computer science. Mathematical Modcls of Computers: Finite Automata are introduced as a first approximation to a model of a computer and some of their properties arc studied. Three equivalent rnodels of computation are then introduced and compared. These models are Turing machines, counter machines, and recnrsive functions. Some of the lirnits of models of computation (unso!vability) arc also discussed. Algorithmic Aspects of Computation; How "good" an algorithm do we have for performing some computation? Is there allY way in which we can say that some algorithm is the "hest" for acc();npli~hing SOllle task? Program Correctness: IVJcthoc/s of pfop,ram \'crificaliol1 arc inlroduced and discllssed. Formal Languages and Parsing: Methods of systematically and formally specifying the syntax of programmillglanguages arc dis.~ eusset!. Somc parsing methods are introduced.

Convexity has become an increasingly important concept in analysis: much of current research in functional analysis concerns general ising (0 convex functions, properties previously studied for the norm; much of interest in convexity ha, arisen from' areas of applied mathematics related to fixed point theory and optimisation problerns. The convex functions we study are defined on J10rmed linear spa(cs. The course will cover the following subject matter: basic set theory relating to convex sets and functions, and topological properlies relating to convex sets and functions, diHerentiability of convex functions, duality theory for convex sels and functions; extreme points of convex sets, the Kreinc·]\;filman theorem, the Brouwer and Sehauder fixed point theorems; Asplund's averaging technique for norms; convex functions and optimisation.

Tbe first hrllI of ihis course will deal with the dynamics of flllcttwtions nnd growth in the framework of an advanced economy. A critical apprai.sal is undertaken of 1eilding r;ontributions in this fidel. Topics snch as the production function, technical progress and various models of growth are dealt with in detail. The second half of the course will study somc underdeveloped countries with specific focns upon their dualistic nature. The strnc1ure of the rural and urban economies of the typical underdeveloped country will be investig8ted in order to understand underdevelopment and hence design development stratcgics. Theoretical models will be supplemented with case studies from Asia.
