This lecture note covers
the following topics: Riemannian manifolds, Covariant differentiaion, Parallel
transport and geodesics, Surfaces in E3 and Curvtature tensor.
This is an
introductory lecture note on the geometry of complex manifolds. Topics discussed
are: almost complex structures and complex structures on a
Riemannian manifold, symplectic manifolds, Kahler manifolds and Calabi-Yau
manifolds,hyperkahler geometries.
This book represents
course notes for a one semester course at the undergraduate level giving an
introduction to Riemannian geometry and its principal physical application,
Einstein’s theory of general relativity. The background assumed is a good
grounding in linear algebra and in advanced calculus, preferably in the language
of differential forms.
