Description and Table of Contents
Description
Riemannian Geometry includes results discovered during the last few years, which have previously only been available through research papers. It contains an elementary account of twistor spaces, of interest to applied mathematicians and physicists, and the final chapter gives the only account available in book form of Willmore surfaces (illustrated by a series of computer-generated pictures).
