    2. Optimisation,
    3. Lebesgue Integration
    4. Fourier transforms
    5. Hilbert Space
  1. Numerical Analysis
  1. Iterative Methods
  2. Polynomial Approximation
  3. Numerical Integration,
  4. Numerical  approximation of ordinary differential equations
  5. Finite difference method for partial derivative equations
  1. Probability and Statistics
  1. Basis of probability theory,
  2. Real random variables and the characterization of their distribution (caracteristic function, generator function) -> orthographe à vérifier,
  3. Random variables time series (il doit y avoir un pb de traduction ou alors la version française est incorrecte) and different type of convergence,
  4. Random variables pair and random vectors
  5. Statistics : point estimates, estimation by intervals.
