Multivariable Calculus

Partial derivatives, gradients, multiple integrals, vector fields.

Zvidzidzo

Introductory Functions of several variables Surfaces, level curves, domains: reading z = f(x, y). x^2 - y^2 Core Partial derivatives and the gradient Differentiating in one direction at a time; the gradient as the vector of slopes. gradient of x^2*y - 3x + y^3 Core Optimisation in several variables Critical points, the second-derivative test, and Lagrange multipliers. gradient of x^2 + y^2 - 2x - 4y Core Double and triple integrals Volume under a surface by iterated integration; changing the order and the coordinates. integrate x^2 dx from 0 to 1 Core Vector fields, line integrals and the big theorems Gradient fields, curl and divergence, Green, Stokes and Gauss. gradient of x^2 + y^2

Calculus in more than one dimension: surfaces instead of curves, gradients instead of slopes, volumes instead of areas. Everything here is drawn in 3D. A surface you can rotate is worth a page of symbols.

What is a partial derivative?

The ordinary derivative with respect to one variable while every other variable is frozen: the slope of the surface in one coordinate direction.

What does the gradient point at?

Uphill: the direction of steepest increase, with length equal to that steepest slope. It is perpendicular to the level curves.
