Analysis and Algebra on Differentiable Manifolds: A Workbook for Students and Teachers by P.M. Gadea,J. Muñoz Masqué Pdf
A famous Swiss professor gave a student’s course in Basel on Riemann surfaces. After a couple of lectures, a student asked him, “Professor, you have as yet not given an exact de nition of a Riemann surface.” The professor answered, “With Riemann surfaces, the main thing is to UNDERSTAND them, not to de ne them.” The student’s objection was reasonable. From a formal viewpoint, it is of course necessary to start as soon as possible with strict de nitions, but the professor’s - swer also has a substantial background. The pure de nition of a Riemann surface— as a complex 1-dimensional complex analytic manifold—contributes little to a true understanding. It takes a long time to really be familiar with what a Riemann s- face is. This example is typical for the objects of global analysis—manifolds with str- tures. There are complex concrete de nitions but these do not automatically explain what they really are, what we can do with them, which operations they really admit, how rigid they are. Hence, there arises the natural question—how to attain a deeper understanding? One well-known way to gain an understanding is through underpinning the d- nitions, theorems and constructions with hierarchies of examples, counterexamples and exercises. Their choice, construction and logical order is for any teacher in global analysis an interesting, important and fun creating task.

This book is a collection of 375 completely solved exercises on differentiable manifolds, Lie groups, fibre bundles, and Riemannian manifolds. The exercises go from elementary computations to rather sophisticated tools. It is the first book consisting of completely solved problems on differentiable manifolds, and therefore will be a complement to the books on theory. A 42-page formulary is included which will be useful as an aide-mémoire, especially for teachers and researchers on these topics. The book includes 50 figures. Audience: The book will be useful to advanced undergraduate and graduate students of mathematics, theoretical physics, and some branches of engineering.
This book is based on the full year Ph.D. qualifying course on differentiable manifolds, global calculus, differential geometry, and related topics, given by the author at Washington University several times over a twenty year period. It is addressed primarily to second year graduate students and well prepared first year students. Presupposed is a good grounding in general topology and modern algebra, especially linear algebra and the analogous theory of modules over a commutative, unitary ring. Although billed as a "first course" , the book is not intended to be an overly sketchy introduction. Mastery of this material should prepare the student for advanced topics courses and seminars in differen tial topology and geometry. There are certain basic themes of which the reader should be aware. The first concerns the role of differentiation as a process of linear approximation of non linear problems. The well understood methods of linear algebra are then applied to the resulting linear problem and, where possible, the results are reinterpreted in terms of the original nonlinear problem. The process of solving differential equations (i. e., integration) is the reverse of differentiation. It reassembles an infinite array of linear approximations, result ing from differentiation, into the original nonlinear data. This is the principal tool for the reinterpretation of the linear algebra results referred to above.
Manifolds, the higher-dimensional analogs of smooth curves and surfaces, are fundamental objects in modern mathematics. Combining aspects of algebra, topology, and analysis, manifolds have also been applied to classical mechanics, general relativity, and quantum field theory. In this streamlined introduction to the subject, the theory of manifolds is presented with the aim of helping the reader achieve a rapid mastery of the essential topics. By the end of the book the reader should be able to compute, at least for simple spaces, one of the most basic topological invariants of a manifold, its de Rham cohomology. Along the way, the reader acquires the knowledge and skills necessary for further study of geometry and topology. The requisite point-set topology is included in an appendix of twenty pages; other appendices review facts from real analysis and linear algebra. Hints and solutions are provided to many of the exercises and problems. This work may be used as the text for a one-semester graduate or advanced undergraduate course, as well as by students engaged in self-study. Requiring only minimal undergraduate prerequisites, 'Introduction to Manifolds' is also an excellent foundation for Springer's GTM 82, 'Differential Forms in Algebraic Topology'.
The Linear Algebra a Beginning Graduate Student Ought to Know by Jonathan S. Golan Pdf
Linear algebra is a living, active branch of mathematics which is central to almost all other areas of mathematics, both pure and applied, as well as computer science, the physical and social sciences, and engineering. It entails an extensive corpus of theoretical results as well as a large body of computational techniques. The book is intended to be used in one of several possible ways: (1) as a self-study guide; (2) as a textbook for a course in advanced linear algebra, either at the upper-class undergraduate level or at the first-year graduate level; or (3) as a reference book. It is also designed to prepare a student for the linear algebra portion of prelim exams or PhD qualifying exams. The volume is self-contained to the extent that it does not assume any previous formal knowledge of linear algebra, though the reader is assumed to have been exposed, at least informally, to some basic ideas and techniques, such as the solution of a small system of linear equations over the real numbers. More importantly, it does assume a seriousness of purpose and a modicum of mathematical sophistication. The book also contains over 1000 exercises, many of which are very challenging.
DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY OF MANIFOLDS by QUDDUS KHAN Pdf
Curves and surfaces are objects that everyone can see, and many of the questions that can be asked about them are natural and easily understood. Differential geometry is concerned with the precise mathematical formulation of some of these questions, while trying to answer them using calculus techniques. The geometry of differentiable manifolds with structures is one of the most important branches of modern differential geometry. This well-written book discusses the theory of differential and Riemannian manifolds to help students understand the basic structures and consequent developments. While introducing concepts such as bundles, exterior algebra and calculus, Lie group and its algebra and calculus, Riemannian geometry, submanifolds and hypersurfaces, almost complex manifolds, etc., enough care has been taken to provide necessary details which enable the reader to grasp them easily. The material of this book has been successfully tried in classroom teaching. The book is designed for the postgraduate students of Mathematics. It will also be useful to the researchers working in the field of differential geometry and its applications to general theory of relativity and cosmology, and other applied areas. KEY FEATURES Provides basic concepts in an easy-to-understand style. Presents the subject in a natural way. Follows a coordinate-free approach. Includes a large number of solved examples and illuminating illustrations. Gives notes and remarks at appropriate places.
Exercises in Functional Analysis by Constantin Costara,Dumitru Popa Pdf
This book of exercises in Functional Analysis contains almost 450 exercises (all with complete solutions), providing supplementary examples, counter-examples and applications for the basic notions usually presented in an introductory course in Functional Analysis. It contains three parts. The first one contains exercises on the general properties for sets in normed spaces, linear bounded operators on normed spaces, reflexivity, compactness in normed spaces, and on the basic principles in Functional Analysis: the Hahn-Banach theorem, the Uniform Boundedness Principle, the Open Mapping and the Closed Graph theorems. The second one contains exercises on the general theory of Hilbert spaces, the Riesz representation theorem, orthogonality in Hilbert spaces, the projection theorem and linear bounded operators on Hilbert spaces. The third one deals with linear topological spaces, and includes a large number of exercises on the weak topologies.

Algorithmic Principles of Mathematical Programming by Ulrich Faigle,W. Kern,G. Still Pdf
Algorithmic Principles of Mathematical Programming investigates the mathematical structures and principles underlying the design of efficient algorithms for optimization problems. Recent advances in algorithmic theory have shown that the traditionally separate areas of discrete optimization, linear programming, and nonlinear optimization are closely linked. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to the whole subject and leads the reader to the frontiers of current research. The prerequisites to use the book are very elementary. All the tools from numerical linear algebra and calculus are fully reviewed and developed. Rather than attempting to be encyclopedic, the book illustrates the important basic techniques with typical problems. The focus is on efficient algorithms with respect to practical usefulness. Algorithmic complexity theory is presented with the goal of helping the reader understand the concepts without having to become a theoretical specialist. Further theory is outlined and supplemented with pointers to the relevant literature.
Exercises in Abelian Group Theory by Grigore Calugareanu Pdf
This is the first book on Abelian Group Theory (or Group Theory) to cover elementary results in Abelian Groups. It contains comprehensive coverage of almost all the topics related to the theory and is designed to be used as a course book for students at both undergraduate and graduate level. The text caters to students of differing capabilities by categorising the exercises in each chapter according to their level of difficulty starting with simple exercises (marked S1, S2 etc), of medium difficulty (M1, M2 etc) and ending with difficult exercises (D1, D2 etc). Solutions for all of the exercises are included. This book should also appeal to experts in the field as an excellent reference to a large number of examples in Group Theory.
Lectures on Morse Homology by Augustin Banyaga,David Hurtubise Pdf
This book offers a detailed presentation of results needed to prove the Morse Homology Theorem using classical techniques from algebraic topology and homotopy theory. The text presents results that were formerly scattered in the mathematical literature, in a single reference with complete and detailed proofs. The core material includes CW-complexes, Morse theory, hyperbolic dynamical systems (the Lamba-Lemma, the Stable/Unstable Manifold Theorem), transversality theory, the Morse-Smale-Witten boundary operator, and Conley index theory.
Advanced Calculus by Lynn Harold Loomis,Shlomo Sternberg Pdf
An authorised reissue of the long out of print classic textbook, Advanced Calculus by the late Dr Lynn Loomis and Dr Shlomo Sternberg both of Harvard University has been a revered but hard to find textbook for the advanced calculus course for decades. This book is based on an honors course in advanced calculus that the authors gave in the 1960's. The foundational material, presented in the unstarred sections of Chapters 1 through 11, was normally covered, but different applications of this basic material were stressed from year to year, and the book therefore contains more material than was covered in any one year. It can accordingly be used (with omissions) as a text for a year's course in advanced calculus, or as a text for a three-semester introduction to analysis. The prerequisites are a good grounding in the calculus of one variable from a mathematically rigorous point of view, together with some acquaintance with linear algebra. The reader should be familiar with limit and continuity type arguments and have a certain amount of mathematical sophistication. As possible introductory texts, we mention Differential and Integral Calculus by R Courant, Calculus by T Apostol, Calculus by M Spivak, and Pure Mathematics by G Hardy. The reader should also have some experience with partial derivatives. In overall plan the book divides roughly into a first half which develops the calculus (principally the differential calculus) in the setting of normed vector spaces, and a second half which deals with the calculus of differentiable manifolds.
Mathematical Modelling by J. Caldwell,Douglas K.S. Ng Pdf
Over the past decade there has been an increasing demand for suitable material in the area of mathematical modelling as applied to science, engineering, business and management. Recent developments in computer technology and related software have provided the necessary tools of increasing power and sophistication which have significant implications for the use and role of mathematical modelling in the above disciplines. In the past, traditional methods have relied heavily on expensive experimentation and the building of scaled models, but now a more flexible and cost effective approach is available through greater use of mathematical modelling and computer simulation. In particular, developments in computer algebra, symbolic manipulation packages and user friendly software packages for large scale problems, all have important implications in both the teaching of mathematical modelling and, more importantly, its use in the solution of real world problems. Many textbooks have been published which cover the art and techniques of modelling as well as specific mathematical modelling techniques in specialist areas within science and business. In most of these books the mathematical material tends to be rather tailor made to fit in with a one or two semester course for teaching students at the undergraduate or postgraduate level, usually the former. This textbook is quite different in that it is intended to build on and enhance students’ modelling skills using a combination of case studies and projects.
Differentiable Manifolds by Karo Maestro,Yozo Matsushima Pdf
The study of the basic elements of smooth manifolds is one of the most important courses for mathematics and physics graduate students. Inexpensively priced and quality textbooks on the subject are currently particularly scarce. Matshushima's book is a welcome addition to the literature in a very low priced edition. The prerequisites for the course are solid undergraduate courses in real analysis of several variables, linear and abstract algebra and point-set topology. A previous classical differential geometry course on curve and surface theory isn't really necessary, but will greatly enhance a first course in manifolds by supplying many low-dimensional examples in ℝn . The standard topics for such a course are all covered masterfully and concisely: Differentiable manifolds and their atlases, smooth mappings, immersions and embeddings, submanifolds, multilinear algebra, Lie groups and algebras, integration of differential forms and much more. This book is remarkable in it's clarity and range, more so then most other introductions of the subject. Not only does it cover more material then most introductions to manifolds in a concise but readable manner, but it covers in detail several topics most introductions do not, such as homogeneous spaces and Lie subgroups. Most significantly, it covers a major topic that most books at this level avoid: complex and almost complex manifolds. Despite the fact complex and almost complex manifolds are incredibly important in both pure mathematics and mathematical physics-they play important roles in both differential and algebraic geometry, as well as in the modern formulation of geometry in general relativity, particularly in modeling spacetime curvature near conditions of extreme gravitational force such as neutron stars and black holes -almost all introductory textbooks on differentiable manifolds vehemently avoid both. Part of the reason is the subject's difficulty once one gets past the most basic elements, which is considerable and requires sophisticated machinery from algebra and topology such as sheaves and cohomology. Another reason is that complex manifolds are important in both differential geometry and its' sister subject, algebraic geometry-and it's difficult sometimes to separate these aspects. By discussing only the barest essentials of complex manifolds, Mashushima avoids both these problems. This unique content usually absent in introductory texts and presented by a master makes the book far more valuable as a supplementary and reference text. Blue Collar Scholar is now proud to republish this lost classic in an inexpensive new edition for strong undergraduates and first year graduate students of both mathematics and the physical sciences.BCS founder Karo Maestro has added his usual personal touch with a preface introducing the student to smooth manifolds and a recommended reading list for further study. Matsushima's book is a wonderful, self contained and inexpensive basis for a first course on the subject that will provide a strong foundation for either subsequent courses in differential geometry or advanced courses on smooth manifold theor
