Mathematics: Specialised Course in Differential Geometry

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: MATM43

<p>The course is an alternatively compulsory course within the Master's programme in mathematics. The course gives an introduction to modern differential geometry, important for further studies in the subject and in relevant areas of physics, in particular connections with Einstein’s general relativity.</p><p>The course covers:</p> <ul> <li>Differentiable manifolds, their tangent spaces and tangent bundles.</li> <li>Riemannian metrics and their unique Levi-Civita connection.</li> <li>Geodesics and the important Riemann curvature tensor and its influence on the local geometry.</li> </ul><p>http://www.maths.lu.se/</p>
