    The Beltrami identity, named after Eugenio Beltrami, is a special case of the Euler–Lagrange equation in the calculus of variations. The Euler–Lagrange equation serves to extremize action functionals of the form. I a b {\displaystyle I [u]=\int _ {a}^ {b}L [x,u (x),u' (x)]\,dx\,,} where and are constants and . [1]
