Book Description:
|
Manifolds play an important role in topology, geometry, complex analysis, algebra, and classical mechanics. Learning manifolds differs from most other introductory mathematics in that the subject matter is often completely unfamiliar. One reason for this anomaly is that even the definition of manifolds involves rather technical details. This beautifully conceived introduction leisurely guides readers through this somewhat complex topic.
