Riemannian Topology and Geometric Structures on Manifolds

Riemannian Topology and Geometric Structures on Manifolds Riemannian Topology and Structures on Manifolds results from a similarly entitled conference held on the occasion of Charles P. Boyer's 65th birthday. The various contributions to this volume discuss recent advances in the areas of positive sectional curvature, Kahler and Sasakian geometry, and their interrelation to mathematical physics, especially M and superstring theory. Focusing on these fundamental ideas, this collection presents review articles, original results, and open problems of interest. Autor: Krzysztof Galicki, Santiago R.
