Beschreibung
This is a nicely organized introduction to the direct methods of variational calculus focusing on the study of critical points of nonlinear functionals. It addresses students of mathematics and physics, and gives many applications to mechanics, classical field theory, boundary and eigenvalue problems of important partial differential equations, and also modern Thomas-Fermi theory.
