Overview

This is the first part of a treatise covering calculus of variations in breadth and depth, paying special attention to the historical origins, partly in applications, for example from geometrical optics, of parts of the theory. A variety of aids to the reader are provided, including an introduction to each chapter, section and subsection and historical footnotes. Later volumes deal with direct methods and regularity theory.
