The gradient of F is then normal to the hypersurface. Similarly, an affine algebraic hypersurface may be defined by an equation F(x 1, ..., x n) = 0, where F is a polynomial. The gradient of F is zero at a singular point of the hypersurface (this is the definition of a singular point). At a non-singular point, it is a nonzero normal vector.

The symbol was introduced originally in 1770 by Nicolas de Condorcet, who used it for a partial differential, and adopted for the partial derivative by Adrien-Marie Legendre in 1786. [3] It represents a specialized cursive type of the letter d , just as the integral sign originates as a specialized type of a long s (first used in print by ...
The curl of the gradient of any continuously twice-differentiable scalar field (i.e., differentiability class) is always the zero vector: =. It can be easily proved by expressing ∇ × ( ∇ φ ) {\displaystyle \nabla \times (\nabla \varphi )} in a Cartesian coordinate system with Schwarz's theorem (also called Clairaut's theorem on equality ...
The gradient of a function is obtained by raising the index of the differential , whose components are given by: ∇ i ϕ = ϕ ; i = g i k ϕ ; k = g i k ϕ , k = g i k ∂ k ϕ = g i k ∂ ϕ ∂ x k {\displaystyle \nabla ^{i}\phi =\phi ^{;i}=g^{ik}\phi _{;k}=g^{ik}\phi _{,k}=g^{ik}\partial _{k}\phi =g^{ik}{\frac {\partial \phi }{\partial x^{k}}}}
