In a textbook for a course introducing the calculus of variables at the senior or first-year graduate level, Kot has particularly in mind students of applied mathematics, physics, and engineering. He includes many examples from fields such as mechanics and optics, and because students have a strong interest in applications, he introduces constraints earlier than other textbooks. He begins by tracing how the calculus of variation developed historically. His topics include the first variation, base generalizations, the homogeneous problem, variable-endpoint conditions, broken extremals, and sufficient conditions.

Paperback. Zustand: New. This book is intended for a first course in the calculus of variations, at the senior or beginning graduate level. The reader will learn methods for finding functions that maximize or minimize integrals. The text lays out important necessary and sufficient conditions for extrema in historical order, and it illustrates these conditions with numerous worked-out examples from mechanics, optics, geometry, and other fields.The exposition starts with simple integrals containing a single independent variable, a single dependent variable, and a single derivative, subject to weak variations, but steadily moves on to more advanced topics, including multivariate problems, constrained extrema, homogeneous problems, problems with variable endpoints, broken extremals, strong variations, and sufficiency conditions. Numerous line drawings clarify the mathematics.Each chapter ends with recommended readings that introduce the student to the relevant scientific literature and with exercises that consolidate understanding.
