Differential Geometry and Mathematical Physics
by Matthias Schmidt Gerd RudolphThe book is devoted to the study of the geometrical and topological structure of gauge theories. It consists of the following three building blocks: - Geometry and topology of fibre bundles, - Clifford algebras, spin structures and Dirac operators, - Gauge theory. Written in the style of a mathematical textbook, it combines a comprehensive presentation of the mathematical foundations with a discussion of a variety of advanced topics in gauge theory. The first building block includes a number of specific topics, like invariant connections, universal connections, H-structures and the Postnikov approximation of classifying spaces. Given the great importance of Dirac operators in gauge theory, a complete proof of the Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem is presented. The gauge theory part contains the study of Yang-Mills equations (including the theory of instantons and the classical stability analysis), the discussion of various models with matter fields (including magnetic monopoles, the Seiberg-Witten model and dimensional reduction) and the investigation of the structure of the gauge orbit space. The final chapter is devoted to elements of quantum gauge theory including the discussion of the Gribov problem, anomalies and the implementation of the non-generic gauge orbit strata in the framework of Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory. The book is addressed both to physicists and mathematicians. It is intended to be accessible to students starting from a graduate level.

Differential Geometry and Statistics (ISSN)
by M.K. MurraySeveral years ago our statistical friends and relations introduced us to the work of Amari and Barndorff-Nielsen on applications of differential geometry to statistics. This book has arisen because we believe that there is a deep relationship between statistics and differential geometry and moreoever that this relationship uses parts of differential geometry, particularly its 'higher-order' aspects not readily accessible to a statistical audience from the existing literature. It is, in part, a long reply to the frequent requests we have had for references on differential geometry! While we have not gone beyond the path-breaking work of Amari and Barndorff- Nielsen in the realm of applications, our book gives some new explanations of their ideas from a first principles point of view as far as geometry is concerned. In particular it seeks to explain why geometry should enter into parametric statistics, and how the theory of asymptotic expansions involves a form of higher-order differential geometry. The first chapter of the book explores exponential families as flat geometries. Indeed the whole notion of using log-likelihoods amounts to exploiting a particular form of flat space known as an affine geometry, in which straight lines and planes make sense, but lengths and angles are absent. We use these geometric ideas to introduce the notion of the second fundamental form of a family whose vanishing characterises precisely the exponential families.
Differential Geometry and Topology of Curves

Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces
by Kristopher TappThis is a textbook on differential geometry well-suited to a variety of courses on this topic. For readers seeking an elementary text, the prerequisites are minimal and include plenty of examples and intermediate steps within proofs, while providing an invitation to more excursive applications and advanced topics. For readers bound for graduate school in math or physics, this is a clear, concise, rigorous development of the topic including the deep global theorems. For the benefit of all readers, the author employs various techniques to render the difficult abstract ideas herein more understandable and engaging. Over 300 color illustrations bring the mathematics to life, instantly clarifying concepts in ways that grayscale could not. Green-boxed definitions and purple-boxed theorems help to visually organize the mathematical content. Color is even used within the text to highlight logical relationships. Applications abound! The study of conformal and equiareal functions is grounded in its application to cartography. Evolutes, involutes and cycloids are introduced through Christiaan Huygens' fascinating story: in attempting to solve the famous longitude problem with a mathematically-improved pendulum clock, he invented mathematics that would later be applied to optics and gears. Clairaut's Theorem is presented as a conservation law for angular momentum. Green's Theorem makes possible a drafting tool called a planimeter. Foucault's Pendulum helps one visualize a parallel vector field along a latitude of the earth. Even better, a south-pointing chariot helps one visualize a parallel vector field along any curve in any surface. In truth, the most profound application of differential geometry is to modern physics, which is beyond the scope of this book. The GPS in any car wouldn't work without general relativity, formalized through the language of differential geometry. Throughout this book, applications, metaphors and visualizations are tools that motivate and clarify the rigorous mathematical content, but never replace it.

Differential Geometry: Foundations of Cauchy-Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-C) (Infosys Science Foundation Series)
by Sorin Dragomir Mohammad Hasan Shahid Falleh R. Al-Solamy Elisabetta BarlettaThis book, Differential Geometry: Foundations of Cauchy–Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-C), is the third in a series of four books presenting a choice of topics, among fundamental and more advanced, in Cauchy–Riemann (CR) and pseudohermitian geometry, such as Lewy operators, CR structures and the tangential CR equations, the Levi form, Tanaka–Webster connections, sub-Laplacians, pseudohermitian sectional curvature, and Kohn–Rossi cohomology of the tangential CR complex. Recent results on submanifolds of Hermitian and Sasakian manifolds are presented, from the viewpoint of the geometry of the second fundamental form of an isometric immersion. The book has two souls, those of Complex Analysis versus Riemannian geometry, and attempts to fill in the gap among the two. The other three books of the series are: Differential Geometry: Manifolds, Bundles, Characteristic Classes (Book I-A) Differential Geometry: Riemannian Geometry and Isometric Immersions (Book I-B) Differential Geometry: Advanced Topics in Cauchy–Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-D) The four books belong to an ampler book project &“Differential Geometry, Partial Differential Equations, and Mathematical Physics&”, by the same authors, and aim to demonstrate how certain portions of differential geometry (<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-farea
Differential Geometry: From Elastic Curves to Willmore Surfaces (Compact Textbooks in Mathematics)
by Ulrich Pinkall Oliver GrossThis open access book covers the main topics for a course on the differential geometry of curves and surfaces. Unlike the common approach in existing textbooks, there is a strong focus on variational problems, ranging from elastic curves to surfaces that minimize area, or the Willmore functional. Moreover, emphasis is given on topics that are useful for applications in science and computer graphics. Most often these applications are concerned with finding the shape of a curve or a surface that minimizes physically meaningful energy. Manifolds are not introduced as such, but the presented approach provides preparation and motivation for a follow-up course on manifolds, and topics like the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for compact surfaces are covered.
Differential Geometry: Manifolds, Bundles and Characteristic Classes (Book I-A) (Infosys Science Foundation Series)
by Sorin Dragomir Mohammad Hasan Shahid Falleh R. Al-Solamy Elisabetta BarlettaThis book, Differential Geometry: Manifolds, Bundles and Characteristic Classes (Book I-A), is the first in a captivating series of four books presenting a choice of topics, among fundamental and more advanced, in differential geometry (DG), such as manifolds and tensor calculus, differentiable actions and principal bundles, parallel displacement and exponential mappings, holonomy, complex line bundles and characteristic classes. The inclusion of an appendix on a few elements of algebraic topology provides a didactical guide towards the more advanced Algebraic Topology literature. The subsequent three books of the series are: Differential Geometry: Riemannian Geometry and Isometric Immersions (Book I-B) Differential Geometry: Foundations of Cauchy-Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-C) Differential Geometry: Advanced Topics in Cauchy–Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-D) The four books belong to an ampler book project (Differential Geometry, Partial Differential Equations, and Mathematical Physics, by the same authors) and aim to demonstrate how certain portions of DG and the theory of partial differential equations apply to general relativity and (quantum) gravity theory. These books supply some of the ad hoc DG machinery yet do not constitute a comprehensive treatise on DG, but rather Authors’ choice based on their scientific (mathematical and physical) interests. These are centered around the theory of immersions - isometric, holomorphic, and Cauchy-Riemann (CR) -and pseudohermitian geometry, as devised by Sidney Martin Webster for the study of nondegenerate CR structures, themselves a DG manifestation of the tangential CR equations.
Differential Geometry: Riemannian Geometry and Isometric Immersions (Book I-B) (Infosys Science Foundation Series)
by Sorin Dragomir Mohammad Hasan Shahid Falleh R. Al-Solamy Elisabetta BarlettaThis book, Differential Geometry: Riemannian Geometry and Isometric Immersions (Book I-B), is the first in a captivating series of four books presenting a choice of topics, among fundamental and more advanced in differential geometry (DG). Starting with the basics of semi-Riemannian geometry, the book aims to develop the understanding of smooth 1-parameter variations of geodesics of, and correspondingly of, Jacobi fields. A few algebraic aspects required by the treatment of the Riemann–Christoffel four-tensor and sectional curvature are successively presented. Ricci curvature and Einstein manifolds are briefly discussed. The Sasaki metric on the total space of the tangent bundle over a Riemannian manifold is built, and its main properties are investigated. An important integration technique on a Riemannian manifold, related to the geometry of geodesics, is presented for further applications. The other three books of the series are Differential Geometry 1: Manifolds, Bundle and Characteristic Classes (Book I-A)Differential Geometry 3: Foundations of Cauchy-Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-C)Differential Geometry 4: Advanced Topics in Cauchy–Riemann and Pseudohermitian Geometry (Book I-D) The four books belong to a larger book project (Differential Geometry, Partial Differential Equations, and Mathematical Physics) by the same authors, aiming to demonstrate how certain portions of DG and the theory of partial differential equations apply to general relativity and (quantum) gravity theory.

Differential Heterogenesis: Mutant Forms, Sensitive Bodies (Lecture Notes in Morphogenesis)
by Alessandro Sarti Giovanna Citti David PiotrowskiThis book describes about unlike usual differential dynamics common in mathematical physics, heterogenesis is based on the assemblage of differential constraints that are different from point to point. The construction of differential assemblages will be introduced in the present study from the mathematical point of view, outlining the heterogeneity of the differential constraints and of the associated phase spaces, that are continuously changing in space and time. If homogeneous constraints well describe a form of swarm intelligence or crowd behaviour, it reduces dynamics to automatisms, by excluding any form of imaginative and creative aspect. With this study we aim to problematize the procedure of homogeneization that is dominant in life and social science and to outline the dynamical heterogeneity of life and its affective, semiotic, social, historical aspects. Particularly, the use of sub-Riemannian geometry instead of Riemannian one allows to introduce disjointed and autonomous areas in the virtual plane. Our purpose is to free up the dynamic becoming from any form of unitary and totalizing symmetry and to develop forms, action, thought by means of proliferation, juxtaposition, and disjunction devices. After stating the concept of differential heterogenesis with the language of contemporary mathematics, we will face the problem of the emergence of the semiotic function, recalling the limitation of classical approaches (Hjelmslev, Saussure, Husserl) and proposing a possible genesis of it from the heterogenetic flow previously defined. We consider the conditions under which this process can be polarized to constitute different planes of Content (C) and Expression (E), each one equipped with its own formed substances. A possible (but not unique) process of polarization is constructed by means of spectral analysis, that is introduced to individuate E/C planes and their evolution. The heterogenetic flow, solution of differential assemblages, gives rise to forms that are projected onto the planes, offering a first referring system for the flow, that constitutes a first degree of semiosis.
Differential Identities in Rings and Algebras and their Applications
by Mohammad Ashraf Vincenzo De Filippis Shakir Ali Lahcen Oukhtite Nadeem Ur RehmanThe theory of differential identities in associative rings and algebras is the basis of this monograph. Informally, an identical relation involving arbitrary elements in the underlying rings (or algebras) along with the unknown differential function is called a differential identity in a ring (or algebra). Invariant theory, non-commutative geometry, mathematical physics, and the theory of rings and algebras are just a few of the fields where this abstract theory has proved to be an effective instrument for solving a wide range of challenging issues, and as the twenty-first century has arrived, the theory of differential identities has found enormous applications in resolving a number of unresolved problems in the theory of rings. This volume summarizes the findings and approaches that have significantly advanced the field during the previous three decades. The first chapter provides a brief introduction to the topic. The following three chapters cover the various kinds of derivations in rings and algebras as well as the interactions between the structure of some classes of rings with involution and the behavior of the underlying derivations, generalized derivations, skew derivations, and b-generalized derivations, as well as their corresponding properties. Chapter 5 explores the characterization of several kinds of higher derivable mappings and the structure of Lie and Jordan-type higher derivations. Although the book contains numerous applications of the conclusions presented in these chapters, the last chapter mostly focuses on the application of derivations. This research monograph is useful for researchers working in the area of differential identities in rings and algebras. It provides a comprehensive and authoritative account of research findings.
