Calculus of variations establishes a framework to determine the extrema of functionals—mappings from functions to real numbers—which has been pivotal in elucidating natural principles such as the ...
Variational methods on graphs extend the classical calculus of variations to discrete structures, treating vertices and edges as the domain for differential‐like operators. By associating an energy ...
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 ...
