Lagrange`s and Hamilton`s Equations
... We now apply the notion of the Legendre transform to the classical Lagrangian. In our previous developments, we have taken L to be a function of all the generalized coordinates and their respective time derivatives; i.e. L = L({qi }, {q̇i }, t). For generality, we have also included the possibility ...

Exact Differential Equations
... 1. The potential function φ is a function of two variables x and y, and we interpret the relationship φ(x, y) = c as defining y implicitly as a function of x. The preceding theorem states that this relationship defines the general solution to the differential equation for which φ is a potential functi ...
