MATH 415 - Introduction to Differential Geometry


3 Credits
Three hours per week.

This course deals with differential geometry of curves and surfaces, curvature and geodesics and an introduction to n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. Multivariable calculus is used to study geometry. This central subject in modern mathematics underlies Einstein’s relativity theory and modern string theory in physics.

Prerequisite(s) MATH 243 , MATH 312  and MATH 340  with a grade of “C” or better.
Offered (FALL/SPRING).
