Notes

  1. 1.

    In the following, references to the first volume of this course (L. Kantorovich, Mathematics for natural scientists: fundamentals and basics, Springer, 2015) will be made by appending the Roman number I in front of the reference, e.g. Sect. I.1.8 or Eq. (I.5.18) refer to Sect. 1.8 and Eq. (5.18) of the first volume, respectively.

  2. 2.

    This assumption is in fact not necessary and Eq. ( 5.16) can be proven without it. However, this will not be done here as it would lead us to a much lengthier calculation.

  3. 3.

    The case with the memory will be considered in Sect. 6.5.2
