The teaching "INSTITUTIONS OF MATHEMATICS 2" falls within the basic activities of the three-year degree course in Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies, and allows the student to tackle a mathematical problem in
his various forms, with consistent use of the current mathematical language. The specific objective of the teaching is the training of knowledge and skills regarding the theoretical and basic application foundations of differential and integral calculus, with extension to the case of functions of several variables. The taught notions will form the basis for dealing with the mathematical models developed in the other courses included in the degree course curriculum.
1. Knowledge and understanding
i) Know the basic concepts of Advanced Mathematical Analysis.
ii) How to use the differential calculus in several variables, understand the notions of limits, derivatives and integrals in several variables.
2. Ability to apply knowledge and understanding.
i) Knowing how to think logically and knowing how to use mathematical symbolism appropriately.
ii) Understanding mathematical analysis in several variables and knowing how to set up a strategy for solving problems.
iii) Knowing how to recognize the role of mathematics in the other sciences.
3. Judgment skills
i) Knowing how to evaluate the logical consistency of the results, both in theory and in the case of concrete mathematical problems.
ii) Knowing how to recognize any errors by analyzing the method applied and by checking the results obtained.
iii) Knowing how to evaluate the possibility of alternative approaches to mathematical problems.
4. Communication skills
i) Knowing how to communicate the knowledge learned using appropriate terminology, even in written form.
ii) Knowing how to interact with the teacher and peers in a respectful and constructive way, formulating coherent questions and proposing alternative ideas to solve the problems dealt with.
5. Learning skills
i) Knowing how to take notes effectively, knowing how to select and collect information according to their importance and priority.
ii) Knowing how to consult the texts indicated by the teacher, and be able to identify alternative sources of reference, also through interaction with the teacher.
iii) Knowing how to exploit the notions learned to correctly solve a mathematical problem.
Having achieved the educational objectives of INSTITUTIONS OF MATHEMATICS WITH EXERCISES - 1, possibly (but not necessarily) having passed this exam. In particular, students should be able to master the concepts and methods related to differential and integral calculus and the basic notions of linear algebra.
Differential calculus in two variables: Limits and continuity, partial and directional derivatives, differentiability. Study of critical points (maximum and minimum) for functions in two variables. Double integrals. Reduction formulas for double integrals on rectangles and on simple regions, variable change formula in double integrals, double integrals in polar coordinates. Hints to triple integrals. Curves and curvilinear integrals. Vector fields. Surface integrals. Surfaces in R3, parameterization of a surface, versor normal on a surface, surface integrals, flow of a vector field across a surface. Vector computation. Green's theorem, Rotor's or Stokes's theorem, divergence or Gauss's theorem. First and second order linear differential equations.

The exam consists of a written test with exercises on all the studied topics. The exercises of the written test also include theoretical questions consisting in the enunciation of mathematical definitions and theorems. The written test will assess the correctness of the presentation, the clarity and completeness of the justifications, the knowledge of scientific language and the ability to use the tools of differential and integral calculus in two variables.
The written test will last between two and three hours.
Frontal lessons: theory and exercises.
