> Real & complex analysis and algebra,

I've mentioned books I've spent at least some significant time with.

There are lots more books on my shelves that look good, have good recommendations, etc. but I haven't paid much attention to.

My interest in algebra is a bit meager -- I'm not seriously interested in number theory, algebraic geometry, algebraic topology, etc.

For real analysis, the books I mentioned seem to me to provide really good sources. Of course there is much more to analysis, e.g., functional analysis. And there's a lot to stochastic processes. And much more to math.

If you want to dip your toes in algebraic geometry and functional analysis, you could do a lot worse than Lang's book on SL(2,R) for the former and Bollobas' for the latter.

Thanks
