Description for Geometry II
Hardback. A very clear account of the subject from the viewpoints of elementary geometry, Riemannian geometry and group theory -- a book with no rival in the literature. Mostly accessible to first-year students in mathematics, the book also includes very recent results which will be of interest to researchers in this field. Editor(s): Vinberg, Ernest Borisovich. Translator(s): Minachin, V. Series: Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences. Num Pages: 256 pages, 10 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PBG; PBM; PBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 559.
Spaces of constant curvature, i.e. Euclidean space, the sphere, and Loba chevskij space, occupy a special place in geometry. They are most accessible to our geometric intuition, making it possible to develop elementary geometry in a way very similar to that used to create the geometry we learned at school. However, since its basic notions can be interpreted in different ways, this geometry can be applied to objects other than the conventional physical space, the original source of our geometric intuition. Euclidean geometry has for a long time been deeply rooted in the human mind. The same is true of ... Read more
