    Study Notes

    Unit Normal Vector

    • To find the unit normal vector to a surface x² + y² - 2x + 3 = 0 at (1, 2, -1), use the gradient vector.
    • Calculate the gradient of the surface equation (partial derivatives with respect to x, y, and z).
    • Evaluate the gradient at the given point (1, 2, -1).
    • Normalize the resulting vector to get the unit normal vector.
    • The unit normal vector will be (2i + 4j -2k)/√24

    Curl of a Gradient

    • The curl of the gradient of a scalar function (gradf) is always zero. -f = 2x² - 3y² + 4z².

    Vector Field Classifications

    • A vector field with a vanishing divergence is called a solenoidal field.
    • An example is 4x-6y+8z.

    Spherical Coordinates

    • In a spherical coordinate system (r, θ, φ), θ = a, where a is a constant, represents a cone.

    Unit Tangent Vector

    • A unit tangent vector to the surface x = t, y = e^t, z = -3t² at t = 0 is calculated using the parametric equations of the surface and finding the tangent vector at a given t; then normalized.

    Gradient

    • To evaluate the gradient of p = x² + y - z - 1 at (1, 0, 0), calculate the partial derivatives of p with respect to x, y, and z at the given point to form the gradient vector.

    Divergence and Curl

    • If ř = xi + yj + zk, then div ř = 3 and curl ř = 0.

    Cylindrical Coordinates

    • In a cylindrical coordinate system (r, θ, z), if r = a (constant), it represents a cylinder with radius a.

    Dot Product

    • If F = 7i + 2j –k, then √ F = 4

    Dot Product of a Vector with Itself

    • If ř=2xi+2yj+2zk then.r = 6

    Gradient Operator on Curl F

    • If F = yzi + y²xj + zk, then ∇ • (∇ × F) = 0.

    Gradient of a Scalar Function

    • if q = xyz, then at (2, 2, 2), the value of ∇q is 2i + 2j + 2k

    Line Integrals and Path Independence

    • A line integral ∫ F • dr is path independent if the vector field F is conservative (i.e., F = ∇φ for some scalar potential φ).

    Green's Theorem

    • Using Green's theorem, the line integral of (y²dx + x²dy) around the square –1 ≤ x ≤ 1, –1 ≤ y ≤ 1 evaluates to 4.

    Stokes' Theorem

    • Stokes' theorem relates a line integral around a closed curve C to a surface integral over the surface S bounded by C.

    Gauss Divergence Theorem

    • Gauss divergence theorem relates surface integrals to volume integrals.

    Scalar Potential

    • A scalar potential is a scalar function whose gradient is a given vector field.

    Green's Theorem (again)

    • In the plane, applying Green's theorem to ∫(3x² – 8y²)dx + (4y – 6xy)dy where C is the boundary of the region x = 0, x = 1, y = 0, y = 1 will result in a calculated value of 10.

    Analytic Function

    • A function is analytic at a point if it is differentiable at that point.

    Harmonic Function

    • A function u(x, y) is harmonic if its second partial derivatives satisfy the Laplace Equation

    Cauchy-Riemann Equations

    • The Cauchy–Riemann equations are a set of partial differential equations that are necessary for a complex function to be complex differentiable.

    Bilinear Transformation

    • A bilinear transformation (a linear fractional transformation) is a mapping of points z in the complex plane into points w in the complex plane.

    Residue Calculus

    • Residue calculation is a way to evaluate contour integrals of complex functions.
