Lectures On The Calculus Of Variations - Harris Hancock - Bog

""Lectures on the Calculus of Variations: The Weierstrassian Theory"" is a book written by Harris Hancock in 1904. The book is a comprehensive guide to the calculus of variations, with a focus on the Weierstrassian theory. The calculus of variations is a branch of mathematics that deals with finding the optimal solution to a functional problem. The book covers the basic concepts of the calculus of variations, including the Euler-Lagrange equation, the Hamiltonian, and the Jacobi equation. It also delves into the Weierstrassian theory, which is a more rigorous approach to the calculus of variations. The book is aimed at students and researchers in mathematics and physics who are interested in the calculus of variations. It is written in a clear and concise style, with numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand the concepts. Overall, ""Lectures on the Calculus of Variations: The Weierstrassian Theory"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in this fascinating field of mathematics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
