✦ Synopsis

This book is meant for a one year course in Riemannian Geometry. The approach the author has taken deviates in some ways from the standard path. Instead of discussing variational calculus, the author introduces a more elementary approach which simply uses standard calculus together with some techniques from differential equations. This book will appeal to readers with a knowledge of standard manifold theory, including such topics as tensors and Stoke's theorem. Scattered throughout the text is a variety of exercises which will help the readers to deepen their understanding of the subject.

In his classic work of geometry, Euclid focused on the properties of flat surfaces. In the age of exploration, mapmakers such as Mercator had to concern themselves with the properties of spherical surfaces. The study of curved surfaces, or non-Euclidean geometry, flowered in the late nineteenth cent
