A Course in Differential Geometry and Lie Groups (Texts and Readings in Mathematics)
By S. Kumaresan.
Description
This book arose out of courses taught by the author. It covers the traditional topics of differential manifolds, tensor fields, Lie groups, integration on manifolds and basic differential and Riemannian geometry. The author emphasizes geometric concepts, giving the reader a working knowledge of the topic. Motivations are given, exercises are included, and illuminating nontrivial examples are discussed.Important features include the following: Geometric and conceptual treatment of differential calculus with a wealth of nontrivial examples. A thorough discussion of the much-used result on the...
