Mathematics 267: Differential Geometry (Spring 2003)
Instructor
Mark Stern
Description
This course will be a basic introduction to Riemannian
geometry. We will introduce differentiable manifolds, vector bundles, metrics,
and
connections. We will study geodesics and curvature. We will examine the
relations between curvature and topology. Applications to advanced topics
will be considered if time permits.
