4	Riemannian geometry a modern introduction more books like this by Chavel add to wishlist This title provides an introduction to the geometry of curved spaces. Its main theme is the effect of the curvature of these spaces on the usual notions of geometry: angles, lengths, areas, and volumes; and those new notions and ideas motivated by curvature itself. A number of completely new themes are created by curvature: they include local ... see all copies from $24.98! new only from $42.11! \| first editions \| SVS

8	Comparison Geometry more books like this by Karsten Grove (Editor), Peter Petersen (Editor) add to wishlist This book documents the focus on a branch of Riemannian geometry called Comparison Geometry. The simple idea of comparing the geometry of an arbitrary Riemannian manifold with the geometries of constant curvature spaces has seen a tremendous evolution of late.

14 view cover	Blow-Up Theory for Elliptic Pdes in Riemannian Geometry (MN-45) more books like this by Olivier Druet, Emmanuel Hebey, Frederic Robert add to wishlist Elliptic equations of critical Sobolev growth have been the target of investigation for decades because they have proved to be of great importance in analysis, geometry, and physics. The equations studied here are of the well-known Yamabe type. They involve Schrodinger operators on the left hand side and a critical nonlinearity on the right hand ... see all copies from $20.19! new only from $20.19!

22 view cover	Riemannian Geometry more books like this by T J Willmore add to wishlist The subject of differential geometry has developed so extensively since T.J.

23 view cover	Riemannian Geometry During the Second Half of the Twentieth Century more books like this by Marcel Berger add to wishlist During its first hundred years, Riemannian geometry enjoyed steady, but undistinguished growth as a field of mathematics.

24 view cover	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 $48.37! new only from $48.37! \| SVS
25 view cover	The Riemann Legacy: Riemannian Ideas in Mathematics and Physics more books like this by Krzysztof Maurin add to wishlist This is a study of Riemannian ideas and their descendants.
