Lectures on Differential Geometry I: Differentiable Manifolds. Questo articolo non è disponibile.Lectures on Differential Geometry I: Differentiable Manifolds

This textbook is designed for a one-semester introductory course in Differential Geometry. It covers the fundamentals of differentiable manifolds, explores Lie groups and homogeneous spaces, and concludes with rigorous proofs of Stokes’ Theorem and the de Rham Theorem. The material closely follows the author's lectures at ETH Zürich.

Will J. Merry obtained his doctorate from the University of Cambridge. He carried out research at Cambridge and ETH in Zürich and published a number of papers in symplectic and contact topology and Hamiltonian dynamics. He made several key contributions to the theory of Rabinowitz Floer homology and its applications. He was recognized as a lecturer who helped his students understand not only the course material but also the way it fitted into the whole landscape of mathematics.
