Product Description

Non-Riemannian Geometry deals basically with manifolds dominated by the geometry of paths co-developed by the distinguished mathematician Luther Pfahler Eisenhart, the author of this text. He begins with a consideration of asymmetric connections, and then proceeds to a contrasting survey of symmetric connections. Discusses projective geometry of paths and the geometry of sub-spaces. 1927 edition.

Product Description
AN INTRODUCTION TO DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY WITH USE OF THE TENSOR CALCULUS By LUTHER PFAHLER EISENHART.Preface: Since 1909, when my Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces was published, the tensor calculus, which had previously been invented by Ricci, was adopted by Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity, and has been developed further in the study of Riemannian Geometry and various generalizations of the latter. In the present book the tensor calculus of cuclidean 3-space is developed and then generalized so as to apply to a Riemannian space of any number of dimensions. The tensor calculus as here developed is applied in Chapters III and IV to the study of differential geometry of surfaces in 3-space, the material treated being equivalent to what appears in general in the first eight chapters of my former book with such additions as follow from the introduction of the concept of parallelism of Levi-Civita and the content of the tensor calculus.

Product Description
In his classic work of geometry, Euclid focused on the properties of flat surfaces. In the age of exploration, mapmakers such as Mercator had to concern themselves with the properties of spherical surfaces. The study of curved surfaces, or non-Euclidean geometry, flowered in the late nineteenth century, as mathematicians such as Riemann increasingly questioned Euclid's parallel postulate, and by relaxing this constraint derived a wealth of new results. These seemingly abstract properties found immediate application in physics upon Einstein's introduction of the general theory of relativity.

In this book, Eisenhart succinctly surveys the key concepts of Riemannian geometry, addressing mathematicians and theoretical physicists alike. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars The best classical-style exposition of Riemannian Geometry.
I bought the Russian translation of this book in 1954 and found that this is the best source of the Riemannian geometry, not only for a beginner (as I was at that time), but also for every specialist. Some items fullydiscussed there by L.P. Eisenhart were even rediscovered decades later ---and published another time as new results. This book is, of course, writtenin the old good traditional style, one will not find here, e.g., Cartan'sforms, but it is really an everlasting treasure. Look also for theContinuous Groups of Transformations by the same author. ... Read more
