Book Synopsis Selected Applications of Geometry to Low-Dimensional Topology by : Michael H. Freedman
Book excerpt: Based on lectures presented at Pennsylvania State University in February 1987, this work begins with the notions of manifold and smooth structures and the Gauss-Bonnet theorem, and proceeds to the topology and geometry of foliated 3-manifolds. It also explains why four-dimensional space has special attributes.
