  2. Multivariable calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariable_calculus

    Multivariable calculus is used in many fields of natural and social science and engineering to model and study high-dimensional systems that exhibit deterministic behavior. In economics , for example, consumer choice over a variety of goods, and producer choice over various inputs to use and outputs to produce, are modeled with multivariate ...

  3. Barbara Burke Hubbard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Burke_Hubbard

    Burke Hubbard is the author of a popular mathematics book on wavelet transforms, originally published in French as Ondes et ondelettes: la saga d’un outil mathématique (Pour la Science, 1995). It won the Prix d'Alembert [ fr ] of the Société mathématique de France , [ 4 ] [ 6 ] and Hubbard became the first winner of this prize who was not ...

  4. Calculus on Manifolds (book) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus_on_Manifolds_(book)

    Calculus on Manifolds is a brief monograph on the theory of vector-valued functions of several real variables (f : R n →R m) and differentiable manifolds in Euclidean space. . In addition to extending the concepts of differentiation (including the inverse and implicit function theorems) and Riemann integration (including Fubini's theorem) to functions of several variables, the book treats ...

  5. Michael Spivak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Spivak

    Spivak acknowledged in the preface of the second edition that the work is arguably an introduction to mathematical analysis rather than a calculus textbook. [13] Another of his well-known textbooks is Calculus on Manifolds, [14] a concise (146 pages) but rigorous and modern treatment of multivariable calculus accessible to advanced undergraduates.

  6. Vector calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_calculus

    Vector calculus or vector analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with the differentiation and integration of vector fields, primarily in three-dimensional Euclidean space, . [1] The term vector calculus is sometimes used as a synonym for the broader subject of multivariable calculus, which spans vector calculus as well as partial differentiation and multiple integration.

  9. Exact differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_differential

    In multivariate calculus, a differential or differential form is said to be exact or perfect (exact differential), as contrasted with an inexact differential, if it is equal to the general differential for some differentiable function in an orthogonal coordinate system (hence is a multivariable function whose variables are independent, as they are always expected to be when treated in ...
