FUNCTIONS, GRAPHS, AND EPIGRAPHS
A function f : X  Y is a ‘rule’ that assigns to every x in X
(the domain) an element y in Y. The range of f, denoted by
f(X), consists of all elements in Y having the form f(x), x in X
The graph of a function f : X  Y is the subset of the
Cartesian Product X  Y that consists of all ordered pairs
(x,f(x)), x in X.
The epigraph of a function f : X R is the subset of
the Cartesian Product X  R that consists of all
ordered pairs (x,y), x in X and f ( x )  y
Problem: Prove that graph (f )  epigraph (f )

LIMITS
Ref = Thomas’ Calculus
Ref p.92 Let f(x) be defined on an open interval about
, except possibly at
itself. We way that f(x)
x0
x 0x approaches and write
approaches the limit L as
lim f ( x )  L
x0
x x 0
if, for every number
such that for all x ,
  0 , there exists a   0
0  | x  x 0 |    | f ( x )  L |  .
Problem: Define limits for x 0   and / or L  

CONTINUITY
Ref. p.125 A function y=f(x) is continuous
at an interior point c of its domain if
lim f ( x)  f (c)
x c
and is continuous at a left, right endpoint
a, b of its domain if
lim f ( x )  f (a ), lim f ( x )  f (b),
x a

THE INTERMEDIATE VALUE THEOREM
Ref p.130 A function y=f(x) that is continuous on
a closed interval [a,b] takes on every value
between f(a) and f(b). In other words, if y 0 is any
value between f(a) and f(b), then
y 0  f ( c)
for some c in [a,b].
Problem: Interpret this in terms of the graph of f(x)
10
THE EXTREME VALUE THEOREM
Ref p. 228 If f is continuous at every point of a
closed interval I, then f assumes both an absolute
maximum value M and an absolute minimum value
m somewhere in I. That is, there are numbers
x1 and x 2 in I with f (x1 )  m, f (x 2 )  M
and m  f ( x )  M for every other x in I.
The values m and M are called absolute or global
extreme values.
Problem: What is the range of f in terms of m and M ?
11
DERIVATIVES
Ref p.147 For a function f : [a,b]  R the derivative
of the function f(x), with respect to the variable x, is
the function f ' whose value at x is
f ( x  h ) f ( x )
f ( x )  lim
h
h 0
'
provided that the limit exists. Equivalently,
f ( x  h )  f ( x )  f ( x ) h  o( h )
'
where the ratio o(h)/h 0 as h0. In a neighborhood
of x in [a,b], f(x) is the constant approximation to f
'
while the function h  f ( x ) h is a linear
approximation to f.

With respect to the standard bases on the Euclidean
spaces, h is a m x 1column vector and the derivative is
an n x m matrix valued function on D. If n = 1 and the
Euclidean dot or scalar product is considered then

EXTREME AND STATIONARY VALUES
Ref p. 229 Let c be an interior point of the domain of
the function f(x). Then f ( c ) is a local maximum
value at c if and only if f ( x )  f (c) for all x
in some open interval containing c. Extreme values
are local maximum (or local minimum) values.
A stationary point of f is a point x where f ' ( x )  0
[4] p. 230 Theorem. If a function f is differentiable
at an interior point c of its domain and if f ( c ) is
an extreme value then c is a stationary point for f.
Problem: What happens for the function |x| at 0?
What happens at the ends of intervals ?

ROLLE’S AND MEAN VALUE THEOREMS
Ref p. 237 Rolle’s Theorem: Suppose that f is
continuous at every point of [a,b] and differentiable
at every point of (a,b). If f(a) = f(b) = 0, then there
exists c in (a,b) such that f ( c)  0.
Problem: Prove this result and then use it to prove
the following result
Ref p. 238 Mean Value Theorem: Under the
previous smoothness assumptions on f, there
exists c in (a,b) such that
f ( b )  f (a )

if D is a convex set and for all A, b in D, t in [0,1] :
f ((1  t )a  tb )  (1  t )f (a )  tf (b)
Problem: Prove that f is a convex function if and only
the epigraph of f is a convex set.
Problem: Prove that if f : [a,b]  R is continuous and
differentiable except at a finite number of points then
f is a convex function if and only if f   0.

CALCULUS OF VARIATIONS
This problem was solved in 1696 by Jean Bernoulli
who gave it as a challenge to other mathematicians.
It was then solved by Daniel Bernoulli, l’Hospital,
Leibniz, and Newton. By 1744 Euler developed the
modern theory of the calculus of variation, Lagrange
applied it to mechanics, and in Hamilton formulated
his Principle of Stationary Action in 1883.
Solution: the paths that connect A and B are graphs of
y  y where y( t 0 )  y( t1 )  0 and

COVARIANCE OF LAGRANGIAN
The Lagrangian L (with respect to a specified inertial
frame of reference) is a scalar valued function that is
determined by the configuration of a system – not by
the choice of generalized coordinates
Therefore, if q  q(q, t ) is any reversible
point transformation then along any path q
'
L (q, q , t )  L(q(q, t ), q (q, t ), t (q, t ))
(where q(q’,t) is the inverse point transformation)
Furthermore, the Euler-Lagrange equations are
covariant since, along the actual path

EMMY NOETHER’S THEOREM
Theorem If a Lagrangian L is invariant under an

EMMY NOETHER’S THEOREM
Example Consider a small rotation about the z-axis
x   x  y y  y  x z  z
If the Lagrangian satisfies L'  L then it is invariant

where Lz is the z-component of angular momentum
Hence, if the Lagrangian remains unchanged under all
rotations then angular momentum is constant in time
