Multi-index NotationThe notion of multi-indices simplifies formulae used in the multivariable calculus, partial differential equations and the theory of distributions, by generalising the concept of an integer index to an array of indices. An n-dimensional multi-index is a vector -
with integers . For multi-indices and one defines: -
-
-
-
-
-
- where
The notation allows to extend many formula from elementary calculus to the corresponding multi-variable case. Some examples of common applications of multi-index notations: Multinomial expansion: -
This formula is used for the definition of distributions and weak derivatives.
