In the series of volumes which together will constitute the "e;Handbook of Differential Geometry"e; we try to give a rather complete survey of the field of differential geometry.
Geometrical tolerancing is the standard technique that designers and engineers use to specify and control the form, location and orientation of the features of components and manufactured parts.
A breathtakingly illustrated look at botanical spirals and the scientists who puzzled over themCharles Darwin was driven to distraction by plant spirals, growing so exasperated that he once begged a friend to explain the mystery ';if you wish to save me from a miserable death.
This book presents a multidisciplinary guide to gauge theory and gravity, with chapters by the world's leading theoretical physicists, mathematicians, historians and philosophers of science.
This textbook provides a gentle introduction to intersection homology and perverse sheaves, where concrete examples and geometric applications motivate concepts throughout.
A generously illustrated textbook and reference for graduate students and researchers that integrates two major areas of mathematicsGeometry, Dynamics, and Rigidity is an introduction to the modern interface between Riemannian geometry and dynamical systems.
