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  and MATH 312  and MATH 340 .  Students must pass all classes with a grade of C or better.
Offered (FALL/SPRING)
