Mean-value theorem

(1/4) > >>

Kun Guo:
I do not quite understand step b and c(see attached) in the proof of Mean-value theorem. Did you use Green's identity or some other identity when dragging out terms from the integral?

Victor Ivrii:
b. Gauss identity (you may call it Green in 2D). We proved this before.

c. $\Sigma$ is a sphere of radius $r$ with a center $y$ so $G$ so for $x\in \Sigma$  $G(x,y)=c |x-y|^{2-n}=cr^{2-n}$ is constant and could be moved out of integral.

Ziting Zhou:
Hi Professor Ivrii. I have a question on the attachment above. In part b, after dragging out the factor, why the remainder is (partial u)/(partial v) instead of u? Thanks.

thanks professor, now it makes more sense  :)
