I have some questions, all associated. So, first, if a curve level is defined as:
f(x,y)=k
or vectorially as:
f(c(t))=k
and its curve integral associated as:
\bigtriangledown f(c(t))\cdot c'_{t}(t)=k
Then, how is the equation of a surface integral associated to surface level:
f(x,y,z)=k
f(S(t,s))=k
Would be this?
\bigtriangledown f(S(t,s))\cdot (S'_{t}(t,s)\times S'_{s}(t,s))=k
And more, all this above make I think if is possible to extend the gradient's theorem (that is specific to line integral):
\int_{t_0}^{t_1} \bigtriangledown f\cdot \hat{t}\;ds=\Delta f
to surface integral...?
