The description of how the two fields of Mathematics get from point A to point B is so spot on haha! Especially for Analysis when you have to do an epsilon-delta proof. I always started at point B and tried to work backwards. I remember thinking it kinda felt like I was "cheating" but one professor I had laughed at me when I told him that and said it's just how it's done.

When I was studying aboard in New Zealand, I noticed that my classmates in the equivalent undergrad level were leagues ahead of me in our Analysis Course, but I seemed to have a bit more experience in our Algebra based courses. Talking to the students, grads, and professors there, I got the feeling that topics in analysis are explored and ingrained in a lot more in lower education than in the US while the US has a higher emphasis on the algebra side of things. I also noticed that the recommended order of courses for math is different as well. So I think there's some merit to that observation.

I see algebra as the study of composition. It gives a framework for taking raw sets and giving us one or more ways to compose elements from that set to get another element from that same set. The ruleset for those compositions, both independently and how they interact, defines the algebraic structure. By studying all the ways elements of sets can compose, we end up with a very general theory that covers things like symmetry and patterns, as well as the mathematics objects we're typically familiar with beforehand, like numbers, polynomials, and functions. On the other hand, I see analysis as the study of measurement. The two main things we want to measure are change and size, which correspond to the derivative and the integral of elementary calculus. In order to study change, we need some way of "smoothly moving through a set", which is what topology affords us. In order to study size, we need some kind of "meter stick" to measure more general spaces against, which is what a measure space affords us.

This is awesome! For context, I am currently studying Calculus, and have just learned about the Chain Rule(which is surprisingly easy so far and awesome!). So I definitely have quite a ways to go in order to understand a lot of this. That said, I agree with what you've said regarding understanding the terminology(speaking as someone who's only learned up to this point, and could be incorrect). From what I've seen in the past, whether it be an integral, a derivative, a series, or heck even the notation for a set, it all looks like witchcraft until you understand what it's talking about. :) Anyways, I have been struggling with writing Proofs for the longest time. I always suspect that I'm leaving something out, or doing something incorrectly. While I didn't quite understand everything you just wrote down(because I have yet to learn what everything means as you said), it did at least shine a little bit of a light on how to go about it. It also makes way more sense how some solutions for differing problems that I've seen may have appeared(not trying to imply that's the case for all of them). They didn't appear out of thin air, but were worked partway through, only to go the end and work backwards, and use that to finish the proof. Really cool stuff! :) So yea, I suppose this is a long winded comment to say that I'm liking what I'm seeing, and to keep up the good work! :)

Well,, I'm not pursuing a Ph.D., so I can't answer the question about "What field do you want to get your Ph.D. in?" But I can say that my (primary) interest in maths is in service of my interests in AI and Cognitive Science and to a lesser degree, Physics. I was very inspired by the book "The Universe Speaks in Numbers" when I read it last year, and decided to really "lean in" to re-learning the maths I've forgotten, and then pushing forward into some material that I never studied back in the day (I was a C.S. major). Right now I'm still grinding through approximately the equivalent of what an undergrad math major would study early in their journey. Calc I, Calc II, Calc III, Differential Equations, Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Statistics, Probability, etc. But I plan to keep pushing forward, using books, KZbin videos, web resources, etc. and probably get into some of the graduate level stuff. What you said about Algebra being all about patterns really resonated with me, as AI is also largely about patterns, albeit possibly at a different level of abstraction. But that brings me to my point - abstraction and the morphisms between objects are different levels of abstraction, are largely where my interests lie. So to the extent that some of this maths might be useful to me from an AI viewpoint, I suppose you can say that I have more interest in Algebra than Analysis. But then again, AI involves many probabilistic elements, which means Probability Theory, which in turn means Measure Theory, which means Analysis. And then I also have reason to be interested in Graph Theory, Combinatorics, and some more esoteric fields like Catastrophe Theory, and Pattern Theory, so... I guess I'm kinda in the mold of "I want to know all of it". :-) In the end, I'll follow Bruce Lee's advice and "be like water" and just flow where the research takes me.

I think the stereotype about domestic vs international student holds quite true for Asian international students! I think this is because in Asia (I know in East Asia this is true but I think other Asian countries also have heavy Calculus teaching system), a lot of the university entrance exam is heavy on Calculus but no so much on algebraic thinking so when these students study pure math in Uni, they tend to be more comfortable with Analysis than Algebra. A saw a lot of Asian international students being shocked by the abstractness of first course in Algebra but not so much in first course in Analysis.

Halfway through a math bachelor in Sweden. I can say that analysis was heavily prioritized over algebra in the education pre-uni, and to some extent also in the course recommendations at uni. Analysis is easier for me probably largely because of that. Although there is a lot to learn in real analysis, I feel definitions and theorems are rarely surprising and often similar to things you've seen before. Similarly with problems. I can quickly get a rough plan, and then it's "just" a matter of execution. In algebra on the other hand i often have no clue why a statement should be true after reading a theorem or a problem. Similarly with definitions. Their immediate consequences come as complete surprises. Makes it harder but also more interesting to me. Feels like there is more to discover.

I think its also worth noting that students from the east side of iron curtain (aka communist countries in Europe before the fall of soviet union) were essentially trained to become an analyst from a very young age. I think the soviet union once had one of the best analysis program in the world, more so than their western counterparts. This was during the cold war when the U.S and USSR wanted to assert their dominance: aka space race. So, it makes sense for countries like USSR to allocate more resources into training their best and brightest students to study real analysis which has a direct application in aerospace, physics and numerical analysis etc. On the other hand, countries like France were more invested in Algebraic geometry and other algebra topics (Grothendirk and his colleagues are case in point. They were mostly citizens of western Europe). For real though, its quite interesting how culture and history often shapes the development of mathematics.

My university in Italy is extremely specialized in analysis but it's because of an almost 130 year-old tradition, probably you know that Italy isn't a developing country. In the XX century there were many great analysts, so other good analysts moved to work with them. So in the departament now like 70% of research is analysis focused. Maybe it's the same thing in the US for algebra, or it's because some education choice. Analysis might be a field in which US is relatively bad at, because of some reasons.

Analysis is the logical foundations of calculus. Topology is the study of connectedness and continuity. Originally topology started with graph theory but there is significant overlap with analysis. Ideas that are vital in analysis like compactness are fundamentally topological in nature and all metric spaces have a topology induced by the metric. So if you can measure lengths or distances in a meaningful way you have a topology there too. Not all topologies are metrizable though so metric spaces are insufficient to classify topological ones.

In India students master single variable calculus in the high school itself. So your argument in favour of the utility of analysis skills is pretty solid ig.

This is a dumb comment from somebody that knows nothing about anything. Is proving trig identities, like what you do in high school, Analysis? I ask because that was always the area where you’d be told to work forwards and backwards from each instance of the identity

In University of Ljubljana if we studied only this, math would be a joke. In algebra year one we also do Permutations Vector spaces Matrecis Transformations Dot product (not just normal dot product as done when multiplying vectory) And some more stuff I don't know how to spell + ofcourse Monoids halfgrups grups rings fields and algebras. In analysis year 1 we do dedikinds axiom and stuff around that. Sequences, sums, differentiation, integration, reiman integrals, debroux integrals + metrics. Metric spaces or how do you spell it. Sorry for my bad english and not exactly knowing what things are called in English. I don't know if you are from USA, but this is literally a joke what you study.

Are you saying its easy or hard? Im in year 1 rn and we basically do the exact same stuff u do lol. tbf im retarded and still dont know the difference between algebra and analysis, but we basically did everything you listed up there. But I wouldnt say your wrong. I think we here in the states just dont do as much mathy stuff as people from other countries lol. I have no clue tho. Thats just what it seems, cus I was talking to a family friend in Srilanka, and the dude learnt all that shit in fucking HIGHSCHOOL bro. tbf he said it was cancerous and he prolly didnt fully understand it anyways, but still other countries are on a different tier. I think its maybe the mindset cus here we fuck around in highschool and then tryhard thru college, but maybe its different idk.

@@aviberezovskiy7633 that does not matter. If you consider the point itself or not does not change the limit. Since any sequence converging to that point must be considered. So if the function is defined there changes nothing. So your remark is of no use. Except when the function is not defined at that point of course

@@2funky4u88 You are wrong. Read about removable discontinuities. A classical example is f(x)=(x^2-9)/(x-3) for x=/=3 and f(3)=1. Avi Berezovskiy's point is right: when talking about limits we have to exclude the point to which x tends whether or not f is defined in that point. Just check the definition of the limits of a function if you don't believe.
