-. . . and the pace of the development is appropriate for most students at the senior or first year graduate level.- -- American Mathematical MonthlyThe purpose of this text is to lay a broad foundation for an understanding of the problems of the calculus of variations and its many methods and techniques, and to prepare readers for the study of modern optimal control theory. eminently suitable as a text for an introductory course: the style is pleasant; the prerequisites are kept to a minimum . . .
Chapter 4 is a self-contained treatment of the homogeneous problem in the two-dimensional plane. The treatment is limited to a thorough discussion of single-integral problems in one or more unknown functions, where the integral is employed in the riemannian sense.The first three chapters deal with variational problems without constraints. In Chapter 5, the minimum
