The purpose of this course note is the study of curves and surfaces ,
and those are in general, curved. The book mainly focus on geometric aspects of
methods borrowed from linear algebra; proofs will only be included for those
properties that are important for the future development.
This book is
addressed to the reader who wishes to cover a greater distance in a short time
and arrive at the front line of contemporary research. This book can serve as a
basis for graduate topics courses. Exercises play a prominent role while
historical and cultural comments relate the subject to a broader mathematical
context.
This
note contains on the following subtopics of Differential Geometry,
Manifolds, Connections and curvature, Calculus on
manifolds and Special topics.
