Builds on C^k function characterised by continuous derivativesHigher partial derivativesMulti-index notation
Statement
Let be open, let be an integer, and let be of class C^k on . Let . For a multi-index , write , , , and . Then If is of class and the segment from to lies in , then
Remarks
The sum over is the Taylor polynomial of order of at . For the statement says that is differentiable at , with . One proof applies the one-variable Taylor theorem to on , together with the chain rule. The case is the second-order Taylor expansion.
