It provides an overview of some of the key techniques as well as examining functions of more than one variable, including partial differentiation and multiple integration.Undergraduates who already have a basic understanding of calculus and vectors, will find this text provides tools with which to progress onto further studies; scientists who need an overview of higher order differential equations will find it a useful introduction and basic reference.
Mathematics undergraduates. Also useful for science and engineering undergraduates.
Functions of more than one variable * Limits and continuity - analytical aspects * Differentiation of functions of more than one variable * Tangent planes and differential geometry * Taylor series for functions of more than one variable * Multiple integration * Vector-valued functions * Vector fields * Integral theorems * Tensors and differential forms.
