The last ten years have seen rapid advances in the understanding of differentiable four-manifolds, not least of which has been the discovery of new 'exotic' manifolds.

These results have had far-reaching consequences in geometry, topology, and mathematical physics, and have proven to be a mainspring of current mathematical research. This book provides a lucid and accessible /5(2).

The book provides a broad introduction to the field of differentiable and Riemannian manifolds, tying. The book also contains material on the general theory of connections on vector bundles and an in-depth chapter on semi-Riemannian geometry that covers basic material about Riemannian manifolds and Lorentz manifolds.

An unusual feature of the book is the inclusion of an early chapter on the differential geometry of hypersurfaces in Euclidean s: 1. However, I would argue that one of the best introductions to manifolds is the old soviet book published by MIR, Mishchenko/Fomenko Geometry of manifolds book "A Course of Differential Geometry and Topology".

It develops everything up from $\mathbb{R}^n$, curves and surfaces to arrive at smooth manifolds and LOTS of examples (Lie groups, classification of surfaces, etc).

It starts with an introduction to the classical differential geometry of curves and surfaces in Euclidean space, then leads to an introduction to the Riemannian geometry of more general manifolds, including a 5/5(1).

Differential Geometry in Toposes. This note explains the following topics: From Kock–Lawvere axiom to microlinear spaces, Vector bundles,Connections, Affine space, Differential forms, Axiomatic structure of the real line, Coordinates and formal manifolds, Riemannian structure, Well-adapted topos models.

The classical roots of modern di erential geometry are presented in the next two chapters. Chapter 2 is devoted to the theory of curves, while Chapter 3 deals with hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space.

In the last chapter, di erentiable manifolds are introduced and basic tools of analysis (di erentiation and integration) on manifolds are presented. From the coauthor of Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces, this companion book presents the extension of differential geometry from curves and surfaces to manifolds in general.

It provides a broad introduction to the field of differentiable and Riemannian manifolds, tying together the classi. Complex geometry studies (compact) complex manifolds.

It discusses algebraic as well as metric aspects. The subject is on the crossroad of algebraic and differential geometry. Recent developments in string theory have made it an highly attractive area, both for mathematicians and theoretical physicists.

Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces and Differential Geometry of Manifolds will certainly be very useful for many students. A distinguishing feature of the books is that many of the basic notions, properties and results are illustrated by a great number of examples and figures.

Abstract. This book, which focuses on the study of curvature, is an introduction to various aspects of pseudo-Riemannian geometry. We shall use Walker manifolds (pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which admit a non-trivial parallel null plane field) to exemplify some of the main differences between the geometry of Riemannian manifolds and the geometry of pseudo-Riemannian Cited by: progress with our study of the geometry of manifolds.

Besides their obvious usefulness in geometry, the Lie groups are academically very friendly. They provide a marvelous testing ground for abstract results.

We have consistently taken advantage of this feature through-out this book. The book is well suited for an introductory course in differential geometry, graduate students in mathematics or other sciences (physics, engineering, biology) who need to master the differential geometry of manifolds as a tool, or any mathematician who likes to read an inspiring book on the basic concepts of differential geometry/5(8).

Geometry 1. Together with the manifolds, important associated objects are introduced, such as tangent spaces and smooth maps. Finally the theory of diﬀerentiation and integration is developed on manifolds, leading up to Stokes’ theorem, which is the generalization to manifolds of the fundamental theorem of Size: KB.

ISBN: OCLC Number: Notes: Papers presented at the Thirty-fifth Symposium on Differential Geometry, sponsored by the Japanese Ministry of Education and held July, at Shinshu University, Matsumoto, Japan. This book on differential geometry by Kühnel is an excellent and useful introduction to the subject.

There are many points of view in differential geometry and many paths to its concepts. This book provides a good, often exciting and beautiful basis from which to make explorations into this deep and fundamental mathematical subject.

For modern differential geometry I cannot stress enough to study carefully the books of Jeffrey M. Lee "Manifolds and Differential Geometry" and Liviu Nicolaescu's "Geometry of Manifolds". Both are deep, readable, thorough and cover a lot of topics with a very modern style and notation. In particular, Nicolaescu's is my favorite.
