This text is appropriate for a one-semester course in what is usually called ad vanced calculus of several variables. The focus is on expanding the concept of continuity; specifically, we establish theorems related to extreme and intermediate values, generalizing the important results regarding continuous functions of one real variable. We begin by considering the function f(x, y, ... ) of multiple variables as a function of the single vector variable (x, y, ... ). It turns out that most of the n treatment does not need to be limited to the finite-dimensional spaces R, so we will often place...

This text is appropriate for a one-semester course in what is usually called ad vanced calculus of several variables. The approach taken here extends elementary results about derivatives and integrals of single-variable functions to functions in several-variable Euclidean space. The elementary material in the single- and several-variable case leads naturally to significant advanced theorems about func tions of multiple variables. In the first three chapters, differentiability and derivatives are defined; prop erties of derivatives reducible to the scalar, real-valued case are discussed; and...
