Notes on Real Analysis and Measure Theory

Alexander Kharazishvili is a Professor of Mathematics at I. Chavachavadze Tibilisi State University in Georgia. An expert in classical Real Analysis in the tradition of the Lusin school, he is the author of the well known monograph Strange Functions in Real Analysis.

“This monograph deals with classical topics of real analysis and measure theory which show a number of interesting phenomena. … This makes the presented material useful and inspiring. … Every chapter is finished with a solid portion of exercises … of various difficulty. More advanced exercises are enriched with hints and comments.” (Marek Balcerzak, Mathematical Reviews, June, 2023)“The text is mostly self-contained and at the end of each chapter are exercises providing additional information to the presented topic. It makes the book accessible to graduate and post-graduate students.” (Jaroslav Tišer, zbMATH 1504.26003, 2023)
