Is it correct to say that terms in a taylor series expansion are the first differential, second differential, third... etc.?

they are the n-th differential at expansion point x0.

When we integrate, we use first differential quantities, dx. Is there calculus that integrates with second differentials?

Just intégrate twice :^)

That doesnt make sense. If use an integral operator on every term in an expanded taylor series what would that equal to?

Is there a calculus text that centers around the topics of integration and differentiation with taylor series expansion?

Taylor series in 0 :
[eqn]f(x) = f(0) + \frac{x}{1!}*f'(0) + \frac{x^2}{2!}*f''(0) + ... [/eqn]
All the way to infinity.
So you integrate term-to-term.
[eqn]F(x) = 0 + \frac{x^2}{2*1!}*f'(0) +\frac{x^3}{3*2!}*f''(0) + ... [/eqn]
All the way to infinity. So basically, while it has a nice patters, it doesn't really amount to anything.

My bad. I made a big mistake.
[eqn]F(x) = Constant + x + \frac{x^2}{2*1!}*f'(0) +\frac{x^3}{3*2!}*f''(0) + ...[/eqn]
And since [math]f''(0) = F'''(0)[/math] :
[eqn]F(x) = Constant + x + \frac{x^2}{2*1!}*F''(0) +\frac{x^3}{3*2!}*F'''(0) + ...[/eqn].
So basically when you integrate, you get the Taylor series of the primitive. Kinda logical when you think about it (fix constant to F(0).)

Want to rethink evaluating the first term there buddy?
