内容简介

  《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》介绍了微分几何的嘉当方法。嘉当几何的两个中心方法是外微分理论和活动标架方法,《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》对它们做了深入和现代化的处理,包括它们在古典和现代问题中的应用。
  《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》一开始用活动标架的语言讲述了经典曲面几何和基础黎曼几何,然后简要介绍了外微分。很多关键概念是通过导向定义、定理和证明的有启发性的例子逐步展开的。
  这些方法的基础建立后,作者便转向应用和更高深的专题。一个引人注目的应用是关于复代数几何的,在那里射影微分几何的一些重要结果得以拓展和更新。本书重点引进了G-结构并讨论了联络理论。通过Darboux方法、特征法、等价性的嘉当法,嘉当的这种机制也被用来求偏微分方程的显式解。
  《微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版)》适合在一年期的微分几何研究生课程中讲授,通篇包括大量的习题和例题。偏微分方程和代数几何等方向的专家如果想了解活动标架和外微分在他们领域中的应用,那么本书对他们是十分有用的。

前言/序言

  In this book, we use moving frames and exterior differential systems to study geometry and partial differential equations. These ideas originated about a century ago in the works of several mathematicians, including Gaston Darboux, Edouard Goursat and, most importantly, Elie Cartan. Over the years these techniques have been refined and extended; major contributors to the subject are mentioned below, under "Further Reading".
  The book has the following features: It concisely covers the classical geometry of surfaces and basic Riemannian geometry in the language of moving frames. It includes results from projective differential geometry that update and expand the classic paper [69] of Griffiths and Harris. It provides an elementary introduction to the machinery of exterior differential systems (EDS), and an introduction to the basics of G-structures and the general theory of connections. Classical and recent geometric applications of these techniques are discussed throughout the text.
  This book is intended to be used as a textbook for a graduate-level course; there are numerous exercises throughout. It is suitable for a one- year course, although it has more material than can be covered in a year, and parts of it are suitable for one-semester course (see the end of this preface for some suggestions). The intended audience is both graduate students who have some familiarity with classical differential geometry and differentiable manifolds, and experts in areas such as PDE and algebraic geometry who want to learn how moving frame and EDS techniques apply to their fields.
  In addition to the geometric applications presented here, EDS techniques are also applied in CR geometry (see, e.g., [98]), robotics, and control theory (see [55, 56, 129]). This book prepares the reader for such areas, as well as for more advanced texts on exterior differential systems, such as [20], and papers on recent advances in the theory, such as [58, 117l. Overview. Each section begins with geometric examples and problems. Techniques and definitions are introduced when they become useful to help solve the geometric questions under discussion. We generally keep the pre- sentation elementary, although advanced topics are interspersed throughout the text.
  In Chapter 1, we introduce moving frames via the geometry of curves in the Euclidean plane E2. We define the Maurer-Cartan form of a Lie group G and explain its use in the study of submanifolds of G-homogeneous spaces. We give additional examples, including the equivalence of holomorphic mappings up to fractional linear transformation, where the machinery leads one naturally to the Schwarzian derivative.
  We define exterior differential systems and jet spaces, and explain how to rephrase any system of partial differential equations as an EDS using jets. We state and prove the Frobenius system, leading up to it via an elementary example of an overdetermined system of PDE.
  In Chapter 2, we cover traditional material-the geometry of surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, submanifolds of higher-dimensional Eu- clidean space, and the rudiments of Riemannian geometry-all using moving frames. Our emphasis is on local geometry, although we include standard global theorems such as the rigidity of the sphere and the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem. Our presentation emphasizes finding and interpreting differential invariants to enable the reader to use the same techniques in other settings.
  We begin Chapter 3 with a discussion of Grassmannians and the Pliicker embedding. We present some well-known material (e.g., Fubini's theorem on the rigidity of the quadric) which is not readily available in other textbooks. We present several recent results, including the Zak and Landman theorems on the dual defect, and results of the second author on complete intersections. osculating hypersurface 微分几何中嘉当的活动标架法和外微分系统初步(英文版) [Cartan for Beginners:Differential Geometry Via Moving Frames and Exterio 下载 mobi epub pdf txt 电子书 格式
