Basic concepts, such as differentiable manifolds, differentiable mappings, tangent vectors, vector fields, and differential forms, are briefly introduced in the first three chapters. Chapter 4 gives a concise introduction to differential geometry needed in subsequent chapters. Chapters 5 and 6 provide interesting applications to connections and Riemannian manifolds. Lie groups and Hamiltonian mechanics are closely examined in the last two chapters. Included throughout the book are a collection of exercises of varying degrees of difficulty. .Differentiable Manifolds. is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in a theoretical physics approach to the subject. Prerequisites include multivariable calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, and a basic knowledge of analytical mechanics.. | 出版日期 | Textbook 20121st edition | 关键词 | Euler equations; Hamiltonian mechanics; Lie derivatives; Riemannian manifolds; differentiable manifolds; | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-8176-8271-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-8176-8271-2 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012 |
