目 录内容简介
《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》介绍了微分几何的嘉当方法。嘉当几何的两个中心方法是外微分理论和活动标架方法,《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》对它们做了深入和现代化的处理,包括它们在古典和现代问题中的应用。
《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》一开始用活动标架的语言讲述了经典曲面几何和基础黎曼几何,然后简要介绍了外微分。很多关键概念是通过导向定义、定理和证明的有启发性的例子逐步展开的。
这些方法的基础建立后,作者便转向应用和更高深的专题。一个引人注目的应用是关于复代数几何的,在那里射影微分几何的一些重要结果得以拓展和更新。本书重点引进了G-结构并讨论了联络理论。通过Darboux方法、特征法、等价性的嘉当法,嘉当的这种机制也被用来求偏微分方程的显式解。
