  4. Stokes' Theorem
• Nonlinear Functional Analysis

  2. Brouwer Mapping Degree
  3. Leray-Schauder Mapping Degree

Graduate level course in Complex Analysis, Real Analysis and PDE's which usually cover the following textbooks:

1. Complex Analysis by Lars Ahlfors
2. Complex Analysis by Elias M. Stein & Rami Shakarchi
3. Real Analysis: Measure Theory, Integration, and Hilbert Spaces by Elias M. Stein & Rami Shakarchi
4. Real Analysis: Modern Techniques and Their Applications by Gerald B. Folland
5. Partial Differential Equations by Lawrence C. Evans

Then a graduate level course in Functional Analysis.

Fixed Point Theory is an important part of analysis to cover. And if you want to mix analysis with a little bit geometry, you MUST check the two brilliant books by I. Chavel: eigenvalues in riemannian geometry and isoperimetric inequalities. They do reveal beatiful applications of PDE's to geometric problems.
