Change of variables formula
A multivariable substitution rule involving the Jacobian determinant.
Change of variables formula
Change of variables formula: Let be open sets and let be a diffeomorphism . If is such that the multiple Riemann integrals below exist (for example, if is continuous with compact support in ), then
where is the Jacobian determinant of at .
This is the multivariable generalization of the one-dimensional substitution rule , and it is fundamental for computing multiple Riemann integrals under smooth coordinate changes.
