\subsection{Green's theorem}

\index{Green's theorem}
|
|
Green's theorem tells us that
|
|
$$\oint P\,dx+Q\,dy=\int\!\!\!\int
|
|
\left({\partial Q\over\partial x}-{\partial P\over\partial y}\right)
|
|
dx\,dy$$
|
|
|
|
\medskip
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Example 1.
|
|
Evaluate $\oint (2x^3-y^3)\,dx+(x^3+y^3)\,dy$ around the circle
|
|
$x^2+y^2=1$ using Green's theorem.\footnote{

It turns out that Eigenmath cannot solve the double integral over
|
|
$x$ and $y$ directly.
|
|
Polar coordinates are used instead.

The $defint$ integrand is $f{*}r$ because $r\,dr\,d\theta=dx\,dy$.
|
|
|
|
\medskip
|
|
\noindent
|
|
Now let us try computing the line integral side of Green's theorem
|
|
and see if we get the same result.
|
|
We need to use the trick of converting sine and cosine to exponentials
|
|
so that Eigenmath can find a solution.

Example 2.
|
|
Compute both sides of Green's theorem for
|
|
$F=(1-y,x)$ over the disk $x^2+y^2\le4$.

First compute the line integral along the boundary of the disk.

|
Note that the radius of the disk is 2.

In this case, Eigenmath solved both forms of the polar integral.
|
|
However, in cases where Eigenmath fails to solve a double integral, try
|
|
changing the order of integration.
