Manifold Theory: An Introduction for Mathematical Physicists

Manifold Theory: An Introduction for Mathematical Physicists

Editorial Reviews
Mathematical Reviews
"Provides a clear and careful exposition. Plenty of examples and exercises to guide the reader."

Book Description
This account of basic manifold theory and global analysis, based on senior undergraduate and postgraduate courses at Glasgow for students and researchers in theoretical physics, has been proven over many years. The treatment is rigorous yet less condensed than in books written primarily for pure mathematicians. Prerequisites include knowledge of basic linear algebra and topology, the latter of which is included in two appendices, as many courses on mathematics for physics students do not include this subject. Topics covered include vector spaces; tensor algebra; differentiable manifolds; exterior differential forms; pseudo-Riemannian and Riemannian manifolds; sympletic manifolds; and complex linear algebra.
