Geometry

Hardcover. Presents the study of Riemannian manifolds through specializing the theory of connections on principle bundles and affine connections. This work emphasizes the geometry of Riemannian manifolds, so that the theorems of Hopf-Rinow, Hadamard-Cartan, and Cartan's local isometry theorem are included, but no elliptic operator theory. Series: AMS Chelsea Publishing. Num Pages: 273 pages, bibliography, index. BIC Classification: PBMP; PBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 158 x 20. Weight in Grams: 518.

Paperback. It is rarely taught in undergraduate or graduate curricula that the only conformal maps in Euclidean space of dimension greater than 2 are those generated by similarities and inversions in spheres. This is in stark contrast to the conformal maps in the plane. This book gives a treatment of this paucity of conformal maps in higher dimensions. Series: Student Mathematical Library.
