Oliver Dimon Kellogg

    Oliver Dimon Kellogg was een Amerikaanse wiskundige die erkend wordt voor zijn belangrijke bijdragen aan de potentiaaltheorie. Dit vakgebied vormde de basis van zijn doctoraalonderzoek en zijn invloedrijke leerboek uit 1929. In samenwerking met George David Birkhoff breidde hij de Brouwer-fixed-pointstelling uit, wat leidde tot de ontwikkeling van de Birkhoff-Kellogg-stelling.

    Applications of the Calculus to Mechanics

    • Introduction to fundamentals of potential functions covers the force of gravity, fields of force, potentials, harmonic functions, electric images and Green's function, sequences of harmonic functions, fundamental existence theorems, the logarithmic potential, and much more. Detailed proofs rigorously worked out. 1929 edition.

      Foundations of Potential Theory
    • A classic text on the applications of calculus to mechanics, this book presents the fundamental principles of classical physics and their mathematical expressions in a clear and comprehensive manner. With numerous examples and exercises, it offers a rigorous and intuitive introduction to the calculus of variations and the dynamics of particles and systems, and provides a solid foundation for further study in physics, engineering, and related fields.
