DLMF: 1.5 Calculus of Two or More Variables
https://dlmf.nist.gov/1.5The function f (x, y) is continuously differentiable if f, ∂ f / ∂ x, and ∂ f / ∂ y are continuous, and twice-continuously differentiable if also ∂ 2 f / ∂ x 2, ∂ 2 f / ∂ y 2, ∂ 2 f / ∂ x ∂ y, and ∂ 2 f / ∂ y ∂ x are continuous. In the latter event
3.2 Higher Order Partial Derivatives
www.ucl.ac.uk › ~ucahmdl › LessonPlansWe can carry on and find ∂3f ∂x∂y2, which is taking the derivative of f first with respect to y twice, and then differentiating with respect to x, etc. In this manner we can find nth-order partial derivatives of a function. Theorem ∂ 2f ∂x∂y and ∂ f ∂y∂x are called mixed partial derivatives. They are equal when ∂ 2f ∂x ...
