Description for Foliations and Geometric Structures
Hardback. Offers basic material on distributions and foliations. This book introduces and builds the tools needed for studying the geometry of foliated manifolds. Its main theme is to investigate the interrelations between foliations of a manifold on the one hand, and the many geometric structures that the manifold may admit on the other hand. Series: Mathematics and its Applications. Num Pages: 300 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBPH. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 166 x 241 x 24. Weight in Grams: 612.
The theory of foliations of manifolds was created in the forties of the last century by Ch. Ehresmann and G. Reeb [ER44]. Since then, the subject has enjoyed a rapid development and thousands of papers investigating foliations have appeared. A list of papers and preprints on foliations up to 1995 can be found in Tondeur [Ton97]. Due to the great interest of topologists and geometers in this rapidly ev- ving theory, many books on foliations have also been published one after the other. We mention, for example, the books written by: I. Tamura [Tam76], G. Hector and U. Hirsch [HH83], ... Read more
