Straightening theorem for vector fields

In differential calculus, the domain-straightening theorem states that, given a vector field on a manifold, there exist local coordinates such that in a neighborhood of a point where is nonzero. The theorem is also known as straightening out of a vector field. The Frobenius theorem in differential geometry can be considered as a higher-dimensional generalization of this theorem.

11_7_1 Potential Function of a Vector Field Part 1

The gradient of a function is a vector. n-Dimensional space can be filled up with countless vectors as values as inserted into a gradient function. This is then referred to as a vector field. Some vector fields have potential functions. In this video we start to look at how to calculat
