Advanced Calculus Book for Computer Science Student

1.1k Views Asked by At

I study Computer Science, but our mathematic coures are a little bit to basic.

I'm looking for a "advanced Calculus" book for self-study that has a lot of exercises. The book should focus on explaining and not just containing a bunch of formulas.

what I already have learnt:

  • Matrices
  • Matrix transformation (e.g. Scale, Rotation, Translation and so on)
  • Vector calculation in $\mathfrak{R}^2$ / $\mathfrak{R}^3$ (Cross Product, Dot Product, Projection and so on)
  • Homogeneous coordinates
  • plane / sphere / line equation
  • derivation with one variable
  • integration
  • number series
  • limit
  • Complex Numbers / Quaternion (only rotation)
  • basic in discrete Mathematics

what I especially want to learn:

  • vector analysis
  • multivariable integration/derivation
  • Integral equation

I am rather interested in acquiring this book

http://math.univ-lyon1.fr/~okra/2011-MathIV/Zorich1.pdf

and the 2nd volume

http://math.univ-lyon1.fr/~okra/2011-MathIV/Zorich2.pdf

These two books are quite thorough, and rigorous, and go all the way from the (modern) foundations of calculus in $\mathbb{R}$, to discussing differential forms and their integration over suitable manifolds (a significant generalization of even multivariable calculus).

Edit: Links appear to be dead now...

This book is online, and may be of use to you. It was apparently used at Harvard, and the material may be up to your standards of sophistication. http://www.math.harvard.edu/~shlomo/docs/Advanced_Calculus.pdf
