An introduction to differential geometry with principal emphasis on Riemannian geometry. Ch. I explains basic definitions and gives the proofs of the important theorems of Whitney and Sard. Ch. II deals with vector fields and differential forms. Ch. III addresses integration of vector fields and p-plane fields. Ch. IV develops the notion of connection on a Riemannian manifold considered as a means to define parallel transport on the manifold.The author also discusses related notions of torsion and curvature, and gives a working knowledge of the covariant derivative. Ch. V specializes on Riemannian manifolds by deducing global properties from local properties of curvature, the final goal being to determine the manifold completely. Ch. VI explores some problems in PDEs suggested by the geometry of manifolds. The text contains many problems and solutions, permitting the reader to apply the theorems and to see concrete developments of the abstract theory.
