Differential Geometry I
This is the website of a course in the past. See here for the current course.
Differential geometry studies the local and global properties of curved spaces.
Topics of the lecture will be:
* curves and surfaces in Euclidean space,
* (Riemannian) manifolds,
* vector bundles, especially the tangent bundle,
* tensors,
* curvature tensors,
* submanifolds,
* geodesics,
* and some theorems from global differential geometry.
