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]
Laplace–Beltrami operator. In differential geometry, the Laplace–Beltrami operator is a generalization of the Laplace operator to functions defined on submanifolds in Euclidean space and, even more generally, on Riemannian and pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. It is named after Pierre-Simon Laplace and Eugenio Beltrami.
Reader-response criticism. Two Girls Reading by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Reader-response criticism is a school of literary theory that focuses on the reader (or "audience") and their experience of a literary work, in contrast to other schools and theories that focus attention primarily on the author, content, or form of the work.
e. Literary theory is the systematic study of the nature of literature and of the methods for literary analysis. [1] Since the 19th century, literary scholarship includes literary theory and considerations of intellectual history, moral philosophy, social philosophy, and interdisciplinary themes relevant to how people interpret meaning.

In vector calculus, a Beltrami vector field, named after Eugenio Beltrami, is a vector field in three dimensions that is parallel to its own curl. That is, F is a Beltrami vector field provided that. Thus and are parallel vectors in other words, . If. {\displaystyle \mathbf {F} } is solenoidal - that is, if.
Giovanni Frattini. Eugenio Beltrami (16 November 1835 – 18 February 1900) was an Italian mathematician notable for his work concerning differential geometry and mathematical physics. His work was noted especially for clarity of exposition. He was the first to prove consistency of non-Euclidean geometry by modeling it on a surface of constant ...
In mathematics, the Beltrami equation, named after Eugenio Beltrami, is the partial differential equation ¯ =. for w a complex distribution of the complex variable z in some open set U, with derivatives that are locally L 2, and where μ is a given complex function in L ∞ (U) of norm less than 1, called the Beltrami coefficient, and where / and / ¯ are Wirtinger derivatives.
Psychoanalytic literary criticism. Psychoanalytic literary criticism is literary criticism or literary theory that, in method, concept, or form, is influenced by the tradition of psychoanalysis begun by Sigmund Freud. Psychoanalytic reading has been practiced since the early development of psychoanalysis itself, and has developed into a ...
