    Study Notes

    Function Continuity

    • A function f(x, y) is continuous at a point (x0, y0) if the limit of f(x, y) as (x, y) approaches (x0, y0) is equal to the value of f(x0, y0).

    • If lim(x,y)→(x0,y0) f(x,y) ≠ f(x0, y0), then the function is discontinuous at the point (x0, y0).

    Limits of Functions of Two Variables

    • The limits of a function f(x, y) as x and y approach x0 and y0, respectively, can be calculated using iterated limits.

    • Iterated limits are the limits taken in one variable at a time, holding the other variable fixed.

    • If the iterated limits of a function are not equal at a point, then the limit does not exist at that point.

    • Limits of the form lim(x→x0) [lim(y→y0) f(x,y)] and lim(y→y0) [lim(x→x0) f(x,y)] are called repeated or iterated limits.

    Extremum of Functions

    • The necessary condition for a function f(x, y) to have an extremum at a point (x0, y0) is that both partial derivatives of f(x, y) with respect to x and y must be equal to zero at that point.
    • This means that ∂f/∂x = 0 and ∂f/∂y = 0 at the point (x0, y0).

    Jacobian

    • The Jacobian of two functions u and v with respect to variables x and y is given by the determinant: ∂(u,v)/∂(x,y) = | ∂u/∂x ∂u/∂y | | ∂v/∂x ∂v/∂y |
