Serret-Frenet formulae; surfaces in E3 and their intrinsic geometry. Gaussian curvature and the Gauss-Bonnet theorem. Coordinate transformations and tensors in n dimensions; n-dimensional riemannian spaces; covariant differentiation; geodesics; the curvature, Ricci and Einstein tensors. Applications of tensors in Relativity and Continuum Mechanics. Prereq: AM 231 or consent of instructor Cross-listed as PMATH 365
As printed in the 1989–90 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
