Excerpt from An Elementary Treatise on the Calculus of Variations In the third Chapter the author has considered, under the same limitation, the important problem of maxima and minima. Of this problem some examples have been given in immediate connexion with the general methods of solution. But as the most interesting examples of the Calculus of Variations are to be found in its applications to particular sciences, it has been thought most expedient to place them in separate chapters under the head of the science to which they respectively belong. These ex amples will be found in Chapters IV., VIII, and IX., containing respectively the applications of the Calculus of Variations to the Theory of Curves, Theory of Sur faces, and Mechanics. In Chapters V., VI., and VII, is discussed the case of functions of more than one independent variable, and the extension of the methods of the Calculus of Variations to such quantities.

Excerpt from An Elementary Treatise on the Calculus of Variations The want of a systematic treatise upon the Calculus of Variations has long been felt. The researches of Poisson, Jacobi, Ostrogradsky, and Delaunay, which have added so much to the completeness of the science as it came from the hands of Lagrange, are only known through the medium of scientific journals and Transactions of learned Societies, and are thus inaccessible to many readers, and inconvenient of access to all. The student has also to complain of the want of a sufficient number of examples to illustrate the principles of the science, a defect which renders these principles, from their very abstract nature, exceedingly difficult to be understood by a beginner. These deficiencies it is the object of the present work to supply. The plan which has been adopted may be briefly stated as follows: After a short introductory sketch of the origin and history of the science, the author has, in the first Chapter, endeavoured to give a clear statement of its principles, considered as a branch of pure Analysis.
