2	Complex Manifolds Without Potential Theory: With an Appendix on the Geometry of Characteristic Classes more books like this by Shiing-Shen Chern add to wishlist From the reviews of the second edition: 'The new methods of complex manifold theory are very useful tools for investigations in algebraic geometry, complex function theory, differential operators and so on. The differential geometrical methods of this theory were developed essentially under the influence of Professor S. S. Chern's works. The ... see all copies from $42.29! new only from $42.29! \| SVS
3	Riemann-Finsler Geometry more books like this by Shiing-Shen Chern, Zhongmin Shen add to wishlist "Riemann-Finsler geometry" is a subject that concerns manifolds with Finsler metrics, including Riemannian metrics. It has applications in many fields of the natural sciences. Curvature is the central concept in "Riemann-Finsler geometry". This invaluable textbook presents detailed discussions on important curvatures such as the Cartan torsion, ... see all copies from $14.00! new only from $20.70!

6	Differential Geometry: Cartan's Generalization of Klein's Erlangen Program more books like this by Richard W Sharpe, Shiing-Shen Chern (Preface by) add to wishlist Cartan geometries were the first examples of connections on a principal bundle. They seem to be almost unknown these days, in spite of the great beauty and conceptual power they confer on geometry. The aim of the present book is to fill the gap in the literature on differential geometry by the missing notion of Cartan connections. Although the ... see all copies from $55.57! new only from $55.57! \| first editions \| SVS
7	Tight and Taut Submanifolds more books like this by Thomas E. Cecil (Editor), Shiing-Shen Chern (Editor) add to wishlist Tight and taut manifolds form an important and special class of surfaces within differential geometry. This book contains in-depth articles by experts in the field as well as an extensive and comprehensive bibliography. This survey will open new avenues for further research and will be an important addition to any geometer's library. see all copies from $12.89! new only from $78.23! \| SVS
8	An Introduction to Riemann-Finsler Geometry more books like this by David Dai-Wai Bao, Zhongmin Shen, Shiing-Shen Chern add to wishlist In Riemannian geometry, measurements are made with both yardsticks and protractors. These tools are represented by a family of inner-products. In Riemann-Finsler geometry (or Finsler geometry for short), one is in principle equipped with only a family of Minkowski norms. So yardsticks are assigned but protractors are not. With such a limited tool ... see all copies from $48.13! new only from $48.13! \| SVS
