Die Variationsrechnung (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

This book offers a comprehensive treatise on variational calculus, a foundational mathematical technique for optimizing functions. Originally developed by Euler, Lagrange, and Jacobi, the field has seen numerous advancements, with the author presenting critical reviews of these historical developments and the current state of the art. This book provides a detailed analysis of the subject's fundamental principles, along with a study of second variations and the application of variational calculus to multiple integrals. The author also explores the history of critical and skeptical perspectives on the subject, particularly focused on the question of whether the solutions it provides are the most general possible. This exploration will likely prove quite interesting to students and practitioners who have encountered limitations when applying variational calculus.
