3. Compute in each point (x, y) ∈ R the second order partial derivatives of f (denoted by ∂xxf ≡ ∂∂x2f2,
∂xyf ≡ ∂x∂y∂2f ,∂yxf ≡ ∂y∂x∂2f ,∂yyf ≡ ∂∂y2f2).

6. According to the values found at the preceding question, discuss and decide (if possible) on the nature of the critical points (extremum, saddle points ?).
7. Calculatef(0,0). Write the expression off(x, y) in polar coordinates and use it in order to study the sign of f in an arbitrarily small ball centered on (0,0). Conclude : isf(0,0)or not a local extremum off?
Exercice 5 : Letf :I →R(with I interval of R) be a dierentiable function and let F be a primitive of f. Let (E) be the dierential equation (with unknown functiony:I →R) :y00+f y0+f0y= 0.
1. Show that (E) is equivalent to the sentence : there is someC∈Rsuch that (eC) : y0+f y=C onI. 2. Denote by (e0C) the homogenous (null right hand side) equation associated to (eC). Give the expression

3. Use the variation of the constant method in order to nd an expression for a particular solution yp of (eC) (as an expression depending on F). Deduce from the previous questions the general solution of (eC).
4. Give the general solution of (E) (as an expression depending onF).

Note : In the exercises 4 and 5 the last question is lightly harder than the others.
