These lecture notes were typset in LaTeX using the “Beamer” presentation package. We would like to acknowledge and thank the numerable members of the LaTeX community for their combined efforts in producing such a superb platform for the production of high quality documents. The following specific Latex tools ere used to prepare these slides :
