📝 Unit-wise Notes
Unit 1: Infinite Series

Infinite Series

Convergence: A series converges if the sum of its terms approaches a finite limit.
Tests: D'Alembert's Ratio Test, Cauchy's Root Test, and Raabe's Test are used to determine convergence.

Unit 2: Differential Calculus

Differential Calculus

Successive Differentiation: Finding nth order derivatives.
Leibnitz's Theorem: Used to find the nth derivative of the product of two functions.
Expansions: Taylor's and Maclaurin's series expand functions into infinite sums.

Unit 3: Partial Differentiation

Partial Differentiation

Partial Derivative: Derivative of a function of multiple variables with respect to one variable, keeping others constant.
Euler's Theorem: Relates homogeneous functions to their partial derivatives: x(∂u/∂x) + y(∂u/∂y) = nu.

Unit 4: Application of Partial Differentiation

Applications of PD

Maxima & Minima: Finding extreme values of functions of two variables (rt - s² > 0).
Lagrange's Multipliers: A method to find local maxima and minima of a function subject to equality constraints.

Unit 5: First Order DE

First Order Differential Equations

Exact DE: Mdx + Ndy = 0 is exact if ∂M/∂y = ∂N/∂x.
Linear DE: Equation of the form dy/dx + Py = Q. Solved using Integrating Factor (I.F. = e^∫Pdx).

Unit 6: Applications of DE

Applications of Differential Equations

Electrical Circuits: Modeling L-R and C-R circuits using first-order differential equations.
Kirchhoff's Laws: Used to set up the DEs for current and charge in circuits.
