Starting from basic knowledge of nilpotent (Lie) groups, an algebraic theory of almost-Bieberbach groups, the fundamental groups of infra-nilmanifolds, is developed.
Extrinsic geometry describes properties of foliations on Riemannian manifolds which can be expressed in terms of the second fundamental form of the leaves.
This proceedings contains a collection of selected, peer-reviewed contributions from the 4th International Workshop "e;Differential Geometric Structures and Applications"e; held in Haifa, Israel from May 10-13, 2023.
In the 60's, the work of Anderson, Chernavski, Kirby and Edwards showed that the group of homeomorphisms of a smooth manifold which are isotopic to the identity is a simple group.
This book explains the notion of Brakke's mean curvature flow and its existence and regularity theories without assuming familiarity with geometric measure theory.
Riemannian Topology and Geometric Structures on Manifolds results from a similarly entitled conference held at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque.
This volume arose from a semester at CIRM-Luminy on "e;Thermodynamic Formalism: Applications to Probability, Geometry and Fractals"e; which brought together leading experts in the area to discuss topical problems and recent progress.
This proceedings volume gathers selected, revised papers presented at the X International Meeting on Lorentzian Geometry (GeLoCor 2021), virtually held at the University of Cordoba, Spain, on February 1-5, 2021.
Consisting of two parts, the first part of this volume is an essentially self-contained exposition of the geometric aspects of local and global regularity theory for the Monge-Ampere and linearized Monge-Ampere equations.
Aimed toward graduate students and research mathematicians, with minimal prerequisites this book provides a fresh take on Alexandrov geometry and explains the importance of CAT(0) geometry in geometric group theory.
This book aims to provide an overview of several topics in advanced differential geometry and Lie group theory, all of them stemming from mathematical problems in supersymmetric physical theories.
The study of minimal surfaces is an important subject in differential geometry, and Nevanlinna theory is an important subject in complex analysis and complex geometry.
With each methodology treated in its own chapter, this monograph is a thorough exploration of several theories that can be used to find explicit formulas for heat kernels for both elliptic and sub-elliptic operators.
This volume collects papers based on talks given at the conference "e;Geometrias'19: Polyhedra and Beyond"e;, held in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto between September 5-7, 2019 in Portugal.
Since the foundational work of Lagrange on the differential equation to be satisfied by a minimal surface of the Euclidean space, the theory of minimal submanifolds have undergone considerable developments, involving techniques from related areas, such as the analysis of partial differential equations and complex analysis.
