Course Syllabus
Abstract
The first part of the course will be cover basic notions and results in calculus on manifolds with applications to differential equations and classical mechanics. In particular, we will review integration of differential forms, the Stokes theorem, vector fields, Noether’s Theorem. Time-permitting we will discuss vector bundles, connections, curvature, the de Rham cohomology and the Chern – Weil theory.
