Mathematical Preliminaries

The Green’s theorem relates the line integral around a simple closed curve C to a double integral over the region R enclosed by the curve in the x-y plane. The condition for the following relations to hold is that R be a simply connected region. A region R is said to be simply connected [3] if two paths in R with the same end-points can be deformed into each other without moving the end-points and without leaving R. Two forms of the Green’s theorem are: ()∮Cf(x,y)dx=∬R∂f∂ydxdy. ()∮Cg(x,y)dy=−∬R∂g∂xdxdy.

We recall that Green’s theorem expresses a relationship between a line integral on a simple closed curve in the plane and a double integral taken over the plane domain bounded by the curve. The extension of Green’s theorem to three-dimensional space leads to the important divergence theorem or Gauss’ theorem. The theorem relates a surface integral on a closed surface to a volume integral (or triple integral) over the domain bounded by the surface. We state the theorem as follows.

Green’s theorem allowed us to compute a line integral around a closed curve by doing a related double integral over the interior of the curve. In a similar fashion, the divergence theorem (or Gauss’s theorem), allows us to compute surface integrals over surfaces that bound a region by doing a related triple integral over this region. The divergence theorem holds in all dimensions, and its two-dimensional version implies Green’s theorem.

Green’s theorem defines the relation between a line integral around a simple closed curve and the area enclosed by the curve. Therefore we can use Green’s theorem to compute the area A of a closed planar parametric curve
