AMONG the many ways in which the American Mathematical Society has endeavoured to popularise and develop the study of higher mathematics, not the least remarkable and useful is the practice of holding ...

Calculus to the level of ODEs, partial derivative and multiple integrals, some knowledge of PDEs helpful but not essential. Students should have a certain comfort level with dealing with advanced ...

THIS little book contains valuable notes taken of lectures delivered at the University of California in the spring of 1938. The aim of the lecturer was to acquaint the student with a skeleton of the ...

The main objective of this paper is to work out a full-scale application of the integrability analysis of the inverse problem of the calculus of variations, as developed in recent papers by Sarlet and ...

This paper deals with the problem of sensitivity analysis in calculus of variations. A perturbation technique is applied to derive the boundary value problem and the system of equations that allow us ...

The Calculus of Variations is a research field whose boundaries have been constantly pushed by questions emerging both in pure mathematics and in the applied sciences. The scope of this Workshop is to ...

Poster presentation: View a poster (PDF) describing this project from the 2013 Symposium on Teaching and Learning. Description: We and our colleagues in SFU's Department of Mathematics have recorded ...

Professor W. E. Byerly '71 will speak on "The Calculus of Variations" at the Physical Conference in the Jefferson Physical Laboratory tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock, instead of Professor P. W. Bridgman ...
