内容简介
As the the title suggests, the goal of this book is to give the reader a taste of the “unreasonable effectiveness” of Morse theory. The main idea behind thistechnique can be easily visualized.
Suppose M is a smooth, compact manifold, which for simplicity we as-sume is embedded in a Euclidean space E. We would like to understand basictopological invariants of M such as its homology, and we attempt a “slicing” technique.

前言/序言
As the the title suggests, the goal of this book is to give the reader a taste of the “unreasonable effectiveness” of Morse theory. The main idea behind thistechnique can be easily visualized.
Suppose M is a smooth, compact manifold, which for simplicity we as-sume is embedded in a Euclidean space E. We would like to understand basictopological invariants of M such as its homology, and we attempt a “slicing” technique.
We fix a unit vector u in E and we start slicing M with the family of hyperplanes perpendicular to u. Such a hyperplane will in general intersectM along a submanifold (slice). The manifold can be recovered by continuouslystacking the slices on top of each other in the same order as they were cut out of M.
Think of the collection of slices as a deck of cards of various shapes. If welet these slices continuously pile up in the order they were produced, we noticean increasing stack of slices. As this stack grows, we observe that there aremoments of time when its shape suffers a qualitative change. Morse theoryis about extracting quantifiable information by studying the evolution of theshape of this growing stack of slices.

在大地线上,各点的主曲率方向均与该点上曲面法线相合。它在圆球面上为大圆弧,在平面上就是直线。在大地测量中,通常用大地线来代替法截线,作为研究和计算椭球面上各种问题。测地线是在一个曲面上,每一点处测地曲率均为零的曲线。 曲面上非直线的曲线是测地线的充分必要条件是除了曲率为零的点以外,曲线的主法线重合于曲面的法线。
