Abstract
This book, Differential Geometry: Riemannian Geometry and Isometric Immersions (Book I-B), is the second 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. (Estratto dal sito dell'editore)
