What do you think about my pic?

1. Finite-dimensional Vector Spaces - Paul Halmos

This one is not really functional analysis, it’s more linear algebra from the perspective of functional analysis. Halmos is a fantastic author, very novel way of presenting elementary material.

2. Applied Functional Analysis vol.1 and vol.2 - Eberhard Zeidler

Don’t be fooled by the title, although there are some genuine applications in the book, they are separated from the main content, which is focused on going through the main results which are important in other fields. These are my favourite textbooks on functional analysis and those I recommend to newcomers.

3. Functional Analysis and Infinite-Dimensional Geometry - Marián Fabian et al.

This one is very comprehensive and has good proofs, although there’s a lot of work to do understanding it. It’s a nice book if you want an entirely abstract look.

4. Functional Analysis - Walter Rudin

The classic, which is actually surprisingly readable. Or well, by the time you have gotten to FA you have matured more as a mathematician. In any case, a good reference.

These are the first general texts I can think of, although there is a lot more on specific subjects like differentiability or numerics.

making spreadsheet to decide which math classes i want to take for the remainder of my time at university. does anyone have any suggestions? i'm not going to post my university's course list obviously but like was there anything you found very interesting or very boring as a subject matter, etc

Popular Locations Wednesday

Toronto Eaton Centre

Eaton Centre was constructed in 1977 by Timothy Eaton to house the Toronto flagship store of his eponymous department store chain and retains that name despite Eaton's going bankrupt in the 90s. The mall is centered around a vaulted glass-ceiling galleria designed by Eberhard Zeidler. The Yonge Street side of the mall was remodeled in the 2000s to add street-facing stores with a variety of facades to give the illusion that it consists of multiple buildings.

The mall can be seen above in The 6th Day, Short Circuit 2, Repo Men, and Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

Peter Doig

Peter Doig (Scottish, born April 12, 1959) is a painter renowned for his landscapes, inspired by his itinerant lifestyle, and by the physical progressions of modern society. Born in Edinburgh, Doig lived in Trinidad, London, and Canada in his youth. While studying painting at Central Saint Martins and the Chelsea School of Art in London, he developed his unique approach; in works evoking the tradition of romantic landscape painting, Doig drew attention to the act of applying paint to the canvas by combining abstracted elements with the ordinary subject matter.

Doig paints from photographic sources, such as his pictures of landscapes, film stills, and images from newspapers and magazines. He does not seek to replicate these images in his paintings, instead, he uses them as a tool to create works that draw from both individual and collective memories of place. In 1994, Doig was nominated for the prestigious Turner Prize, launching him to fame in the international art community. His works, which depict scenes ranging from urban, rural, and wooded landscapes to artists’ studios and lone figures in fishing boats, concentrate on the illusionistic properties of paint. In his most recent works featuring scenes of Trinidad, Doig revisits one of his childhood homes; the artist now has a studio in Trinidad, and also teaches painting at the School of Art in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Early Life-

Peter Doig was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. In 1962 he moved with his family to Trinidad, where his father worked with a shipping and trading company, and then in 1966 to Canada. He moved to London to study at the Wimbledon School of Art in 1979–1980, Saint Martin's School of Art from 1980 to 1983, and Chelsea School of Art, in 1989–1990, where he received an MA. In 1989, the artist held a part-time job as a dresser at the English National Opera with his friend Haydn Cottam.

Doig was invited to return to Trinidad in 2000, to take up an artist's residency with his friend and fellow painter Chris Ofili. In 2002, Doig moved back to the island, where he set up a studio at the Caribbean Contemporary Arts Centre near Port of Spain. He also became a professor at the Fine Arts Academy in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Artistic Practice-

Many of Doig's paintings are landscapes, somewhat abstract, with a number harking back to the snowy scenes of his childhood in Canada. He draws inspiration for his figurative work from photographs, newspaper clippings, movie scenes, record album covers and the work of earlier artists like Edvard Munch. His landscapes are layered formally and conceptually, and draw on assorted art historical artists, including Munch, H. C. Westermann, Friedrich, Monet and Klimt. While his works are frequently based on found photographs (and sometimes on his own) they are not painted in a photorealist style. Doig instead uses the photographs simply for reference. In a 2008 interview, Doig referred to his use of photographs and postcards as painting "by proxy" and noted that his paintings "did not attempt to reflect setting".

Shortly after Doig graduated from the Chelsea College of Arts, he was awarded the prestigious Whitechapel Artist Prize culminating in a solo exhibition at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1991. Included in the Whitechapel exhibition were major works including Swamped (1990), Iron Hill (1991), and The Architect's Home in the Ravine (1991). The Architect's Home in the Ravine (1991) shows Eberhard Zeidler's modernist home in Rosedale at the heart of the Toronto ravine.

Doig created a series of paintings of Le Corbusier's modernist communal living apartments known as l’Unité d’Habitation located at Briey-en-Forêt, in France. In the early 1990s, Doig was involved with a group of architects and artists who operated from the building. The modern urban structures are partially revealed and hidden by the forest that surrounds them. As Doig explains: "When you walk through an urban environment, you take the strangeness of the architecture for granted."

Created in the late 1990s, a series of paintings – including works such as Country-Rock (Wing Mirror) (1999) – depicts a tunnel, a familiar landmark for Toronto residents since an anonymous artist painted a rainbow over it, at the northbound Don Valley Parkway, in 1972. The rainbow has been repainted more than 40 times over two decades, despite authorities’ attempts to remove it. His 1997 painting Canoe-Lake was inspired by the 1980 slasher film Friday the 13th.

In 2003, Doig started a weekly film club called StudioFilmClub in his studio together with Trinidadian artist Che Lovelace. Doig not only selects and screens the films; he also paints the poster advertising the week's film. He told an interviewer that he finds this ongoing project liberating because it is "much more immediate" than his usual work. In 2005, he was one of the artists exhibited in part 1 of The Triumph of Painting at the Saatchi Gallery in London.

Eaton Centre part 2

Eaton's partnered with the Cadillac Fairview development company and the Toronto-Dominion Bank in the construction of the Eaton Centre. The complex was designed by Eberhard Zeidler and Bregman + Hamann Architects as a multi-levelled, vaulted glass-ceiling galleria, modelled after the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan, Italy. At the time, the interior design of the Eaton Centre was considered revolutionary and influenced shopping centre architecture throughout North America

Place Montreal Trust

Place Montreal Trust is a shopping mall in Downtown Montreal, located west of the Eaton Centre, at the corner of Saint Catherine Street and McGill College Avenue. With over 320,000 square feet (29,729 m2) of stores and services, Place Montreal Trust attracts 14 million visitors each year. Its indoor water fountain has the highest water spout in North America at 30 meters in height. Place Montreal Trust is linked to the Underground City of Montreal.

The Bell Media Tower is part of the Place Montreal Trust complex.

Place Montreal Trust was originally proposed to house a concert hall, in the mall's mezzanine and basement level. However, this design called for an office tower that would partially obstruct the view of Mount Royal from McGill College Street. The plan encountered public opposition, including from architectural activist Phyllis Lambert, a member of the board of directors of Cadillac Fairview, who participated in protests against her own company's plan. This idea of a concert hall on McGill College was abandoned in favour of a design for Place Montreal Trust with a wider setback, as part of a redesign of McGill College Street as a widened scenic avenue.

The shopping mall of Place Montreal Trust was opened by Cadillac Fairview in 1988. At the time, Cadillac Fairview dubbed the mall as one its five (self-titled) "fashion centres" that also included Promenades Saint-Bruno, Fairview Pointe-Claire, Carrefour Laval and Galeries d'Anjou. Cadillac Fairview still use the "fashion centre" branding to this day, but not on Place Montreal Trust as it no longer owns the mall.

Ivanhoe Inc assumed the management of the shopping mall in August 1995, while Cadillac Fairview continued to manage the office building.

On July 7, 1999, Ivanhoe acquired 100% of Place Montreal Trust as part of a 20 million dollar package intended to position Place Montreal Trust a major player in the Downtown Montrealrevitalization plan.

Recently, a new investment of 15 million dollars enabled the complete renovation of the food court and the first level of the shopping centre.

In July 1998, Place Montreal Trust became home to Montreal's Planet Hollywood restaurant. The restaurant did brisk business for the first year, but closed in September 2001. The entrance to the restaurant was on the North/West corner of the Ste. Catherine Street as well as the third floor of the mall. It has since been converted back to retail space.

Place Montreal Trust's atrium allows maximum use of natural light and features a large indoor water fountain. Its 30-metre water spout is the highest in North America. During the holiday season, a giant illuminated Christmas tree filled with animated storybook characters stands just as tall. The mall spreads out over 320,000 square feet (29,729 m2) and attracts 14 million visitors a year.
