One-Dimensional Variational Problems: An Introduction

by Stefan Hildebrandt, Giuseppe Buttazzo, Mariano Giaquinta

Book Overview

One-dimensional variational problems are often neglected in favor of problems which use multiple integrals and partial differential equations, which are typically more difficult to handle. However, these problems and their associated ordinary differential equations do exhibit many of the same challenges and complexity of higher-dimensional problems, while being accessible to more students. This book for graduate students provides the first modern...
