7.2 Calculus of Variations - MIT Mathematics
math.mit.edu › classes › 187.2. CALCULUS OF VARIATIONS c 2006 Gilbert Strang 7.2 Calculus of Variations One theme of this book is the relation of equations to minimum principles. To minimize P is to solve P 0 = 0. There may be more to it, but that is the main point. For a quadratic P(u) = 1 2 uTKu uTf, there is no di culty in reaching P 0 = Ku f = 0. The matrix K is ...
