VECTOR CALCULUS I(LECTURE IN ENGLISH)

This course extends the basic ideas of calculus to the context of functions of several variables and vector-valued functions. Topics include partial derivatives, tangent planes, and Lagrange multipliers. The study of curves in two- and three-space will focus on curvature, torsion, and the TNB-frame. Topics in vector analysis include multiple integrals, vector fields, Green’s Theorem, the Divergence Theorem and Stokes’ Theorem. Additionally, the course may cover the basics of differential equations.

The main goal is to prepare students to apply differential methods to their respective branch of programming.

Attendance is mandatory. Refer to ATTENDANCE.pdf for more information on the ATTENDANCE portion of your grade. Homework must be submitted in groups of two or three students. You do not need to stay in the same group each week. Please write [VCA] in the subject of any emails you send to me.
