Description for Handbook of Normal Frames and Coordinates
Hardback. Presents an in-depth survey of the theory of normal frames and coordinates in differential geometry. This book can be used as a reference manual, a review of the existing results and an introduction to some new ideas and developments. It proves the theorems of existence, uniqueness and, possibly, holonomicity of the normal frames and coordinates. Series: Progress in Mathematical Physics. Num Pages: 460 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBMP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 28. Weight in Grams: 853.
The main subject of this book is an up-to-date and in-depth survey of the theory of normal frames and coordinates in di?erential geometry. The existing results, as well as new ones obtained lately by the author, on the theme are presented. The text is so organized that it can serve equally well as a reference manual, introduction to and review of the current research on the topic. Correspondingly, the possible audience ranges from graduate and post-graduate students to sci- tists working in di?erential geometry and theoretical/mathematical physics. This is re?ected in the bibliography which consists mainly of standard (text)books and ... Read more

Reviews for Handbook of Normal Frames and Coordinates
From the reviews: “This is a careful and rather comprehensive presentation of theory and methods related to normal frames in differential geometry. … The book is carefully written, provides a good overview, and contains many interesting aspects not available otherwise. It is a valuable addition to the literature on connections in differential geometry.” (M. Kunzinger, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. ... Read more
