Spring 2013 Lecture Notes:

Dates with an asterisk next to them represent those days that I will not be in town. On these dates I will make appropriate arrangements for the lecture. These will likely entail make-up lectures, possibly in the evenings, but since this course will be webcast, you can always watch the webcast if you cannot attend on the make-up date.
