This is a textbook on differential geometry well-suited to a variety of courses on this topic. For readers seeking an elementary text, the prerequisites are minimal and include plenty of examples and intermediate steps within proofs, while providing an invitation to more excursive applications and...

The aim of this work is to offer a concise and self-contained 'lecture-style' introduction to the theory of classical rigid geometry established by John Tate, together with the formal algebraic geometry approach launched by Michel Raynaud. These Lectures are now viewed commonly as an ideal means of...

This book is devoted to review two of the most relevant approaches to the study of classical field theories of the first order, say k-symplectic and k-cosymplectic geometry. This approach is also compared with others like multisymplectic formalism. It will be very useful for researchers working...

This book is a collection of papers in memory of Gu Chaohao on the subjects of Differential Geometry, Partial Differential Equations and Mathematical Physics that Gu Chaohao made great contributions to with all his intelligence during his lifetime. All contributors to this book are close friends,...

In this book, the general theory of submanifolds in a multidimensional projective space is constructed. The topics dealt with include osculating spaces and fundamental forms of different orders, asymptotic and conjugate lines, submanifolds on the Grassmannians, different aspects of the normalization...

Geometry is Fun for Me, written by Dr. Vicky Owyang Chan and illustrated by Crystal Ferguson, is a delightful picture book narrated by a dog named Professor Brando. The professor introduces geometry terms followed by scenes of children with examples of these terms. Children of all ages will enjoy this rhyming book while learning geometry.

This volume is a compilation of papers presented at the conference on differential geometry, in particular, minimal surfaces, real hypersurfaces of a non-flat complex space form, submanifolds of symmetric spaces and curve theory. It also contains new results or brief surveys in these areas. This volume...

The book makes a first course in linear algebra more accessible to the majority of students and it assumes no prior knowledge of the subject. It provides a careful presentation of particular cases of all core topics. Students will find that the explanations are clear and detailed in manner. It is...

This book provides an introduction to topology, differential topology, and differential geometry. It is based on manuscripts refined through use in a variety of lecture courses. The first chapter covers elementary results and concepts from point-set topology. An exception is the Jordan Curve Theorem,...

A quick in, quick out review of Geometry Common Core math Relevant to high school students enrolled in their Geometry class in those states adhering to the Common Core math standards, this quick review provides targeted chapter-level reviews of topics aligned to the Geometry Common Core math...

The effects of geometry and linear algebra on each other receive close attention in this examination of geometry’s correlation with other branches of math and science. In-depth discussions include a review of systematic geometric motivations in vector space theory and matrix theory; the use of the...

This book consists of two lecture notes on geometric flow equations (O. Schnürer) and Lorentzian geometry  - holonomy, spinors and Cauchy Problems (H. Baum and T. Leistner) written by leading experts in these fields.  It grew out of the summer school “Geometric flows and the geometry of...

Learn geometry as you stargaze! Students will learn geometric shapes as they are engaged in reading about Greek mythology and the constellations. This high-interest Spanish math reader integrates math and literacy skills, combining informational text, problem-solving, and real-world connections to...

A fascinating memoir from the man who revitalized visual geometry, and whose ideas about fractals have changed how we look at both the natural world and the financial world. Benoit Mandelbrot, the creator of fractal geometry, has significantly improved our understanding of, among other things,...
