Riemannian Geometry
@article{HolopainenRiemannianG, title={Riemannian Geometry}, author={Ilkka Holopainen}, journal={Nature}, volume={119}, pages={117-117} }
THE recent physical interpretation of intrinsic differential geometry of spaces has stimulated the study of this subject. Riemann proposed the generalisation, to spaces of any order, of Gauss's theory of surfaces, and introduced certain fundamental ideas in this general theory. Bianchi, Beltrami, and others made substantial contributions to the subject, which was extended by Ricci with the use of tensor analysis and his absolute calculus. Recently there has been an extensive study and…

We introduce the reader to a fundamental exterior differential system of Riemannian geometry which arises naturally with every oriented Riemannian n+1manifold M. Such system is related to the…

We introduce a new geometric approach to a manifold equipped with a smooth density function that takes a torsion-free affine connection, as opposed to a weighted measure or Laplacian, as the…

This book associates an auxiliary pseudo-Riemannian structure of neutral signature to certain affine connections and uses this correspondence to study both geometries to be accessible to mathematicians who are not expert in the subject and to students with a basic grounding in differential geometry.
The moduli space of isometry classes of globally hyperbolic spacetimes

Abstract For a surface immersed in a three-dimensional space endowed with a smooth norm instead of an inner product, one can define analogous concepts of curvature and metric. With such concepts in…
