Multivariable calculus

Multivariable calculus

  • Differential operator
    In mathematics, a differential operator is an operator defined as a function of the differentiation operator.
  • Partial differential equation
    In mathematics, a partial differential equation (PDE) is a differential equation that contains unknown multivariable functions and their partial derivatives.
  • Contour line
    A contour line (also isoline, isopleth, or isarithm) of a function of two variables is a curve along which the function has a constant value.
  • Directional derivative
    In mathematics, the directional derivative of a multivariate differentiable function along a given vector v at a given point x intuitively represents the instantaneous rate of change of the function, moving through x with a velocity specified by v.
  • Multiple integral
    The multiple integral is a generalization of the definite integral to functions of more than one real variable, for example, f(x, y) or f(x, y, z).
  • Differentiable function
    In calculus (a branch of mathematics), a differentiable function of one real variable is a function whose derivative exists at each point in its domain.
  • Laplace operator
    In mathematics, the Laplace operator or Laplacian is a differential operator given by the divergence of the gradient of a function on Euclidean space.
  • Critical point (mathematics)
    In mathematics, a critical point or stationary point of a differentiable function of a real or complex variable is any value in its domain where its derivative is 0 or undefined.
  • Leibniz integral rule
    In calculus, Leibniz's rule for differentiation under the integral sign, named after Gottfried Leibniz, states that for an integral of the form then for x in (x0, x1) the derivative of this integral is thus expressible as provided that f and its partial derivative fx are both continuous over a region in the form [x0, x1] × [y0, y1].
  • Real coordinate space
    In mathematics, real coordinate space of n dimensions, written Rn (/ɑːrˈɛn/ ar-EN) (also written ℝn with blackboard bold) is a coordinate space that allows several (n) real variables to be treated as a single variable.
  • Volume element
    In mathematics, a volume element provides a means for integrating a function with respect to volume in various coordinate systems such as spherical coordinates and cylindrical coordinates.
