Course Description

　This course provides an introduction to calculus of functions of many variables and differential equations necessary in the following mathematical courses and specialized courses. The items are as follows: Functions of many variables, partial derivative, differentiation of composite functions, mean value theorem, Taylor’s expansion, maximum and minimum, determination of extreme values, theorem on implicit functions, conditional problem of extreme values, multiple integral, iterated integral, change of the order of integration, multiple integration by polar coordinates, integration of Gauss distribution, differential equation and its solutions, and homogeneous linear differential equation of the second order with constant coefficients.
　The classes consist of lectures and exercises. Students will give presentations on homework assignments in the classes.
　This subject is related to the clause 3 of the diploma policy of the Department of Information and Electronic Engineering.
