Path Independence

The potential difference between two locations does not depend on the path taken between the locations chosen.

A Mathematical Model

What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ \deltaV = -\left(E_x * \deltax + E_y * \deltay + E_z * \deltaz \right) }[/math] where E is the electric field with components in the x, y, and z directions. Delta x, y, and z are the components of final location minus to the components of the initial location.
