Aspects of Differential Geometry II
Gilkey, Peter / Vázquez-Lorenzo, Ramón / Park, Jeonghyeong Differential Geometry is a wide field. We have chosen to concentrate upon certain aspects that are appropriate for an introduction to the subject, we have not attempted an encyclopedic treatment.
Book II deals with more advanced material than Book I and is aimed at the graduate level. Chapter 4 deals with additional topics in Riemannian geometry. Properties of real analytic curves given by a single ODE and of surfaces given by a pair of ODEs ...
