Book Synopsis A Course in Metric Geometry by : Dmitri Burago
Download or read book A Course in Metric Geometry written by Dmitri Burago and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2001 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Metric geometry" is an approach to geometry based on the notion of length on a topological space. This approach experienced a very fast development in the last few decades and penetrated into many other mathematical disciplines, such as group theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations. The objective of this graduate textbook is twofold: to give a detailed exposition of basic notions and techniques used in the theory of length spaces, and, more generally, to offer an elementary introduction into a broad variety of geometrical topics related to the notion of distance, including Riemannian and Carnot-Caratheodory metrics, the hyperbolic plane, distance-volume inequalities, asymptotic geometry (large scale, coarse), Gromov hyperbolic spaces, convergence of metric spaces, and Alexandrov spaces (non-positively and non-negatively curved spaces).

Book Synopsis Metric Measure Geometry by : Takashi Shioya
Download or read book Metric Measure Geometry written by Takashi Shioya and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies a new theory of metric geometry on metric measure spaces. The theory was originally developed by M. Gromov in his book Metric Structures for Riemannian and Non-Riemannian Spaces and based on the idea of the concentration of measure phenomenon by Levy and Milman. A central theme in this book is the study of the observable distance between metric measure spaces, defined by the difference between 1-Lipschitz functions on one space and those on the other. The topology on the set of metric measure spaces induced by the observable distance function is weaker than the measured Gromov-Hausdorff topology and allows the author to investigate a sequence of Riemannian manifolds with unbounded dimensions. One of the main parts of this presentation is the discussion of a natural compactification of the completion of the space of metric measure spaces. The stability of the curvature-dimension condition is also discussed.
Book Synopsis Metric Spaces, Convexity, and Non-positive Curvature by : Athanase Papadopoulos
Download or read book Metric Spaces, Convexity, and Non-positive Curvature written by Athanase Papadopoulos and published by Erich Schmidt Verlag GmbH & Co. KG. This book was released on 2014 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about metric spaces of nonpositive curvature in the sense of Busemann, that is, metric spaces whose distance function satisfies a convexity condition. The book also contains a systematic introduction to metric geometry, as well as a detailed presentation of some facets of convexity theory that are useful in the study of nonpositive curvature. The concepts and the techniques are illustrated by many examples, in particular from hyperbolic geometry, Hilbert geometry and Teichmuller theory. For the second edition, some corrections and a few additions have been made, and the bibliography has been updated.
Book Synopsis Recent Topics in Differential and Analytic Geometry by : T. Ochiai
Download or read book Recent Topics in Differential and Analytic Geometry written by T. Ochiai and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Studies in Pure Mathematics, Volume 18-I: Recent Topics in Differential and Analytic Geometry presents the developments in the field of analytical and differential geometry. This book provides some generalities about bounded symmetric domains. Organized into two parts encompassing 12 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of harmonic mappings and holomorphic foliations. This text then discusses the global structures of a compact Kähler manifold that is locally decomposable as an isometric product of Ricci-positive, Ricci-negative, and Ricci-flat parts. Other chapters consider the most recognized non-standard examples of compact homogeneous Einstein manifolds constructed via Riemannian submersions. This book discusses as well the natural compactification of the moduli space of polarized Einstein–Kähler orbitfold with a given Hilbert polynomials. The final chapter deals with solving a degenerate Monge–Ampère equation by constructing a family of Einstein–Kähler metrics on the smooth part of minimal varieties of general kind. This book is a valuable resource for graduate students and pure mathematicians.
Download or read book Geometry written by R.S. Millman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended as a first rigorous course in geometry. As the title indicates, we have adopted Birkhoff's metric approach (i.e., through use of real numbers) rather than Hilbert's synthetic approach to the subject. Throughout the text we illustrate the various axioms, definitions, and theorems with models ranging from the familiar Cartesian plane to the Poincare upper half plane, the Taxicab plane, and the Moulton plane. We hope that through an intimate acquaintance with examples (and a model is just an example), the reader will obtain a real feeling and intuition for non Euclidean (and in particular, hyperbolic) geometry. From a pedagogical viewpoint this approach has the advantage of reducing the reader's tendency to reason from a picture. In addition, our students have found the strange new world of the non-Euclidean geometries both interesting and exciting. Our basic approach is to introduce and develop the various axioms slowly, and then, in a departure from other texts, illustrate major definitions and axioms with two or three models. This has the twin advantages of showing the richness of the concept being discussed and of enabling the reader to picture the idea more clearly. Furthermore, encountering models which do not satisfy the axiom being introduced or the hypothesis of the theorem being proved often sheds more light on the relevant concept than a myriad of cases which do.

Book Synopsis Projective Geometry and Projective Metrics by : Herbert Busemann
Download or read book Projective Geometry and Projective Metrics written by Herbert Busemann and published by . This book was released on 1953 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book differs widely in content, methods, and point of view from traditional presentations of the subject. Herein more space is devoted to the discussion of the basic concepts of distance, motion, area and perpendicularity. In fact, the non-Euclidean geometries are reached via general metric spaces and the Hilbert problem of finding those geometries in which straight lines are the shortest connections. Of course, the general problem is only formulated here; but this leads naturally to the consideration of geometries other than the Euclidean and two non-Euclidean ones, and thus to the modern view in which the three classical geometries are very special, and closely related, cases of general geometric structures. The overall aim is to counteract the impression of geometry as an isolated and static subject, and to present its methods and essential content as part of modern mathematics.

Book Synopsis On the Hypotheses Which Lie at the Bases of Geometry by : Bernhard Riemann
Download or read book On the Hypotheses Which Lie at the Bases of Geometry written by Bernhard Riemann and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents William Clifford’s English translation of Bernhard Riemann’s classic text together with detailed mathematical, historical and philosophical commentary. The basic concepts and ideas, as well as their mathematical background, are provided, putting Riemann’s reasoning into the more general and systematic perspective achieved by later mathematicians and physicists (including Helmholtz, Ricci, Weyl, and Einstein) on the basis of his seminal ideas. Following a historical introduction that positions Riemann’s work in the context of his times, the history of the concept of space in philosophy, physics and mathematics is systematically presented. A subsequent chapter on the reception and influence of the text accompanies the reader from Riemann’s times to contemporary research. Not only mathematicians and historians of the mathematical sciences, but also readers from other disciplines or those with an interest in physics or philosophy will find this work both appealing and insightful.
Book Synopsis Elementary Synthetic Geometry by : George Bruce Halsted
Download or read book Elementary Synthetic Geometry written by George Bruce Halsted and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION. Researches in the non-Euclidean geometries of Bolyai-Lobachévski and Riemann, while renewing the traditional admiration for Euclid, yet emphasize the advantages of a comparative study of pure spherics and plane geometry before similar figures. Putting pure spherics as Book II is thus a beginning toward comparative geometry. Again, the non-Euclidean geometry has given the key to the artificiality in Euclid's order of propositions. But it is approaching metric geometry from pure projective geometry which decides in favor of symmetry as a guiding principle. George Bruce Halsted. 2407 Guadalupe Street, Austin, Texas.
