Objectives
To introduce the concepts and basic results of Vector Analysis.
Learning outcomes and competences
Upon successful course completion, the student should know: the fundamental results concerning the analysis of multivariate functions and understand the concepts of partial derivative, gradient vector, local maxima and minima, tangent plane to the graph of functions of two variables being able to determine extreme values of constrained functions. The student should also know the methods of multiple integration and use them to determine areas, volumes, etc, of bounded plane or space regions, using change of variables if necessary.
Working method
Presencial
Pre-requirements (prior knowledge) and co-requirements (common knowledge)
Students are expected to have previously acquired basic knowledge of Linear Algebra (matrices, vector spaces) and Calculus of real functions of one real variable.
Program
1. Differentiable curves: velocity and acceleration vectors; arc length; curvature and radius of curvature; Frenet trihedron and torsion for curves in three-dimensional space.
2. Graphs, contour lines and level surfaces. Open and closed subsets, accumulation and isolated points. Limits and continuity. Directional and partial derivatives. Gradient vector of a real valued multivariate function. Derivability. Tangent plane to the graph of a function of two variables. Normal line and tangent hiperplane at a point on the level surface of a function. Jacobian matrix. Derivation of composite functions. Inverse and implicit function theorems.
3. Maxima and minima of real-valued multivariate functions. Constrained extrema: Lagrange multipliers.
4. Multiple integrals. Definition of (Riemann) integral of a multivariate real-valued function over a bounded region. Fubini's theorem: computation of integrals via iterated integrals. Change of coordinates. Double integrals in polar coordinates, triple integrals in cylindrical and spherical coordinates.

Calculation formula of final grade
In the normal exam season, the final grade depends 60% on the midterm tests and 40% on the final exam. In the appeal season, the exam is worth 100% of the final grade.
Classification improvement
During the semester, the rules are those indicated in the formula of computation of the final grade. After that, the general relevant rules apply.
Observations
Stude ts with a grade of at least 18 may be asked to take an additional exam to confirm their grade. Students with a grade of 8 or 9 may also be invited to take an additional exam as an opportunity for approval; as a result, they may obtain a grade of 10 or keep the previous grade.
