Problem sets will be handed out every week on Tuesday in the lecture and discussed on the following Thursday or Friday in the exercise classes. For a fruitful interaction in the exercise classes, we strongly recommend the students to read and prepare the problems in the meantime. The solved problem sets have to be handed in on the following Tuesday in the lecture. They will be handed back graded and discussed in the exercise classes on Thursday.

University students should hand in their solved problem sets directly at Ruxandra's office, Y36-K-34 (University Irchel), until Tuesday 18:00.
