This textbook offers undergraduates a self-contained introduction to advanced topics not covered in a standard calculus sequence. The author¿s enthusiastic and engaging style makes this material, which typically requires a substantial amount of study, accessible to students with minimal prerequisites. Readers will gain a broad knowledge of the area, with approaches based on those found in recent literature, as well as historical remarks that deepen the exposition. Specific topics covered include the binomial theorem, the harmonic series, Euler's constant, geometric probability, and much more. Over the fifteen chapters, readers will discover the elegance of calculus and the pivotal role it plays within mathematics.A Compact Capstone Course in Classical Calculus is ideal for exploring interesting topics in mathematics beyond the standard calculus sequence, particularly for undergraduates who may not be taking more advanced math courses. It would also serve as a useful supplement for a calculus course and a valuable resource for self-study. Readers are expected to have completed two one-semester college calculus courses.
Higher special functions emerge from boundary eigenvalue problems of Fuchsian differential equations with more than three singularities. This detailed reference provides solutions for singular boundary eigenvalue problems of linear ordinary differential equations of second order, exploring previously unknown methods for finding higher special functions. Starting from the fact that it is the singularities of a differential equation that determine the local, as well as the global, behaviour of its solutions, the author develops methods that are both new and efficient and lead to functional relationships that were previously unknown. All the developments discussed are placed within their historical context, allowing the reader to trace the roots of the theory back through the work of many generations of great mathematicians. Particular attention is given to the work of George Cecil Jaffé, who laid the foundation with the calculation of the quantum mechanical energy levels of the hydrogen molecule ion.
This monograph is devoted to developing a theory of combined measure and shift invariance of time scales with the related applications to shift functions and dynamic equations. The study of shift closeness of time scales is significant to investigate the shift functions such as the periodic functions, the almost periodic functions, the almost automorphic functions, and their generalizations with many relevant applications in dynamic equations on arbitrary time scales.First proposed by S. Hilger, the time scale theory-a unified view of continuous and discrete analysis-has been widely used to study various classes of dynamic equations and models in real-world applications. Measure theory based on time scales, in its turn, is of great power in analyzing functions on time scales or hybrid domains. As a new and exciting type of mathematics-and more comprehensive and versatile than the traditional theories of differential and difference equations-, the time scale theory can precisely depict the continuous-discrete hybrid processes and is an optimal way forward for accurate mathematical modeling in applied sciences such as physics, chemical technology, population dynamics, biotechnology, and economics and social sciences.Graduate students and researchers specializing in general dynamic equations on time scales can benefit from this work, fostering interest and further research in the field. It can also serve as reference material for undergraduates interested in dynamic equations on time scales. Prerequisites include familiarity with functional analysis, measure theory, and ordinary differential equations.
Integrals and sums are not generally considered for evaluation using complex integration. This book proposes techniques that mainly use complex integration and are quite different from those in the existing texts. Such techniques, ostensibly taught in Complex Analysis courses to undergraduate students who have had two semesters of calculus, are usually limited to a very small set of problems.Few practitioners consider complex integration as a tool for computing difficult integrals. While there are a number of books on the market that provide tutorials on this subject, the existing texts in this field focus on real methods. Accordingly, this book offers an eye-opening experience for computation enthusiasts used to relying on clever substitutions and transformations to evaluate integrals and sums.The book is the result of nine years of providing solutions to difficult calculus problems on forums such as Math Stack Exchange or the author's website, residuetheorem.com.It serves to detail to the enthusiastic mathematics undergraduate, or the physics or engineering graduate student, the art and science of evaluating difficult integrals, sums, and products.
This textbook provides a gentle overview of fundamental concepts related to one-variable calculus. The original approach is a result of the author's forty years of experience in teaching the subject at universities around the world. In this book, Dr. Zalduendo makes use of the history of mathematics and a friendly, conversational approach to attract the attention of the student, emphasizing what is more conceptually relevant and putting key notions in a historical perspective. Such an approach was conceived to help them to overcome potential difficulties in teaching and learning of this subject - caused, in many cases, by an excess of technicalities and computations.Besides covering the core of the discipline - real number, sequences and series, functions, derivatives, integrals, convexity and inequalities - the book is enriched by "e;side trips"e; to relevant subjects not usually seen in traditional calculus textbooks, touching on topics like curvature, the isoperimetric inequality, Riemann's rearrangement theorem, Snell's law, Buffon's needle problem, Gregory's series, random walk and the Gauss curve, and more. An insightful collection of exercises and applications completes this book, making it ideal as a supplementary textbook for a calculus course or the main textbook for an honors course on the subject.

This book provides analytic tools to describe local and global behavior of solutions to Ito-stochastic differential equations with non-degenerate Sobolev diffusion coefficients and locally integrable drift. Regularity theory of partial differential equations is applied to construct such solutions and to obtain strong Feller properties, irreducibility, Krylov-type estimates, moment inequalities, various types of non-explosion criteria, and long time behavior, e.g., transience, recurrence, and convergence to stationarity. The approach is based on the realization of the transition semigroup associated with the solution of a stochastic differential equation as a strongly continuous semigroup in the Lp-space with respect to a weight that plays the role of a sub-stationary or stationary density. This way we obtain in particular a rigorous functional analytic description of the generator of the solution of a stochastic differential equation and its full domain. The existence of such a weight is shown under broad assumptions on the coefficients. A remarkable fact is that although the weight may not be unique, many important results are independent of it. Given such a weight and semigroup, one can construct and further analyze in detail a weak solution to the stochastic differential equation combining variational techniques, regularity theory for partial differential equations, potential, and generalized Dirichlet form theory. Under classical-like or various other criteria for non-explosion we obtain as one of our main applications the existence of a pathwise unique and strong solution with an infinite lifetime. These results substantially supplement the classical case of locally Lipschitz or monotone coefficients.We further treat other types of uniqueness and non-uniqueness questions, such as uniqueness and non-uniqueness of the mentioned weights and uniqueness in law, in a certain sense, of the solution.
"Calculus is an area of advanced mathematics in which continuously changing values are studied. It is introduced at the school level and usually school students consider it as a set of tricks that they need to memorize. They study many other sub-areas of mathematics like algebra and real functions, but are unable to correlate calculus to these streams. This book is a good resource to understand the correlation. It is written to support students in this transition from school calculus to university analysis. Calculus is intended for students pursuing undergraduate studies in mathematics or in disciplines like physics and economics where formal mathematics plays a significant role. It provides a thorough introduction to calculus, with an emphasis on logical development arising out of geometric intuition. For students majoring in mathematics, this book can serve as a bridge to real analysis. For others, it can serve as a base from where they can venture into various applications. After mastering the material in the book, the student would be equipped for higher courses both in the pure (real analysis, complex analysis) and the applied (differential equations, numerical analysis) sides"--
Die Entwicklung, in welcher sich die Theorie der reellen Funktionen seit einiger Zeit befindet, betrifft vor allem die allgemeinen Begriffe. Besonders die Idee der Ordnung mit allen ihren Spielarten, wie sie etwa in den Strukturen des Filters, des Verbandes, des Somenringes und der Ortsfunktionen gepragt worden ist, fuhrte in steigendem Mae zu einer Umgestaltung aller Teile der Theorie. Diese Entwicklung kann noch nicht als abgeschlossen angesehen werden; trotzdem wurde versucht, sie in diesem Buch zu berucksichtigen, zu dem Ausma allerdings, wie es mir ursprunglich vorschwebte, ist es nicht gekommen. Verspatet erst wurde mir die einschlagige Literatur zuganglich, und auerdem ergab es sich, da der klassische Tatsachenbestand, der trotz aller neuen Be- griffsbildungen immer noch den eigentlichen Schatz der Theorie aus- macht, letzthin nicht vernachlassigt werden durfte. Da auf den fol- genden 400 Seiten keine erschopfende Behandlung des Gesamtgebietes moglich war, ist bei der Weite desselben nicht verwunderlich. So fehlt insbesondere eine eingehende Behandlung der Theorien der Differen- tiation der additiven Mengenfunktionen, der Oberflachenintegrale, des DENJoyschen Integrals, der CARATHEODoRYschen Ortsfunktionen und der SCHWARTzschen Distributionen; das Literaturverzeichnis am Ende des Buches mag ein kleiner Luckenbuer dafur sein. Wegen der hier behandelten Gegenstande selbst aber verweise ich auf den nachfolgenden "e;Uberblick"e;.
