Abstract:
The general theory of the existence of a minimum limit in the fixed and variable end point problems of singular quadratic functionals of n dependent variables is developed, generalizing the one dimensional results of Marston Morse, Walter Leighton and A. D. Martin and completing a phase of the n-dimensional theory initiated recently by the author.References
