  2. Chain rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_rule

    All extensions of calculus have a chain rule. In most of these, the formula remains the same, though the meaning of that formula may be vastly different. One generalization is to manifolds. In this situation, the chain rule represents the fact that the derivative of f ∘ g is the composite of the derivative of f and the derivative of g. This ...

  4. Integration by parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_by_parts

    In calculus, and more generally in mathematical analysis, integration by parts or partial integration is a process that finds the integral of a product of functions in terms of the integral of the product of their derivative and antiderivative. It is frequently used to transform the antiderivative of a product of functions into an ...

  6. Integration by substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_by_substitution

    In calculus, integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, reverse chain rule or change of variables, [1] is a method for evaluating integrals and antiderivatives. It is the counterpart to the chain rule for differentiation , and can loosely be thought of as using the chain rule "backwards."

  7. Triple product rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_product_rule

    Suppose a function f(x, y, z) = 0, where x, y, and z are functions of each other. Write the total differentials of the variables = + = + Substitute dy into dx = [() + ()] + By using the chain rule one can show the coefficient of dx on the right hand side is equal to one, thus the coefficient of dz must be zero () + = Subtracting the second term and multiplying by its inverse gives the triple ...

  8. Vector calculus identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_calculus_identities

    The validity of this rule follows from the validity of the Feynman method, for one may always substitute a subscripted del and then immediately drop the subscript under the condition of the rule. For example, from the identity A ⋅( B × C ) = ( A × B )⋅ C we may derive A ⋅(∇× C ) = ( A ×∇)⋅ C but not ∇⋅( B × C ) = (∇× B ...

  9. Stratonovich integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratonovich_integral

    Although the Itô integral is the usual choice in applied mathematics, the Stratonovich integral is frequently used in physics. In some circumstances, integrals in the Stratonovich definition are easier to manipulate. Unlike the Itô calculus, Stratonovich integrals are defined such that the chain rule of ordinary calculus holds.
