ADVANCES IN DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY AND TOPOLOGY

edited by F Tricerri (I.S.I. Torino)

The aim of this volume is to offer a set of high quality contributions on recent advances in Differential Geometry and Topology, with some emphasis on their application in physics.

A broad range of themes is covered, including convex sets, Kaehler manifolds and moment map, combinatorial Morse theory and 3-manifolds, knot theory and statistical mechanics.


Contents:

  • Convex Sets and Kaehler Manifolds (M Gromov)
  • Accessibilite En Geometrie Riemannienne Non-Holonome (T Hangan)
  • Riemannian Manifolds with Homogeneous Geodesics (O Kowalski)
  • Triangulations of Manifolds with Few Vertices (W Kühnel)
  • Geometry and Symmetry (L Vanhecke)
  • 3-Manifolds and Orbifold Groups of Links (B Zimmermann)
  • Knots, Braids, and Statistical Mechanics (V F R Jones)


Readership: Pure mathematicians.
