Lecture
Principle of Least Action
Description
This lecture introduces the principle of least action, a concept in mathematics that generalizes analysis to functional branches. It explains how functionalities studied in analysis evolve according to this principle, satisfying the Euler-Lagrange equation. The instructor discusses the trajectory that minimizes action, the solution sought, and the extension to several degrees of freedom.
