Synopsis

In this second English edition of Caratheodory's famous work (originally published in German), the two volumes of the first edition have been combined into one (with a combination of the two indexes into a single index). There is a deep and fundamental relationship between the differential equations that occur in the Calculus of Variations and partial differential equations of the first order: in particular, to each such partial differential equation there correspond variational problems. This basic fact forms the rationale for Caratheodory's masterpiece. Includes a Guide to the Literature and an Index.
