Analysis and Algebra on Differentiable Manifolds
This is the second edition of this best selling problem book for students, now containing over 400 completely solved exercises on differentiable manifolds, Lie theory, fibre bundles and Riemannian manifolds. The exercises go from elementary computations to rather sophisticated tools. Many of the definitions and theorems used throughout are explained in the first section of each chapter where they appear. A 56-page collection of formulae is included which can be useful as an aide-mémoire, even for teachers and researchers on those topics. In this 2nd edition: • 76 new problems • a section devoted to a generalization of Gauss’ Lemma • a short novel section dealing with some properties of the energy of Hopf vector fields • an expanded collection of formulae and tables • an extended bibliography Audience This book will be useful to advanced undergraduate and graduate students of mathematics, theoretical physics and some branches of engineering with a rudimentary knowledge of linear and multilinear algebra.

Invariant Kähler Structures on the Cotangent Bundles of Symmetric Spaces and Reduction
The main objects of investigation are G-invariant polarizations on domains D in the cotangent bundles T*(G/K). The book comprises two parts. Part I: Invariant Kahler structures and Part II: Invariant hyperkahler structures.

Grundlagen der Analysis
Die Vorlesungen von Heinz König zu den Grundlagen der Analysis, eine Perle der mathematischen Lehre, werden hier der interessierten Öffentlichkeit zugänglich gemacht. Sie sind eine bemerkenswerte Mischung aus Bourbakismus und praktischer Mathematik, eine neue Aufbereitung in stringenten Zusammenhängen auf hohem Abstraktionsniveau, die gleichermaßen für die unmittelbare Anwendung hervorragend geeignet ist. Zum Verständnis von Heinz Königs Vorlesungen werden ein grundlegendes Abstraktionsvermögen und Interesse an mathematischen Zusammenhängen zwingend vorausgesetzt.
Analysis and Algebra on Differentiable Manifolds: A Workbook for Students and Teachers
A famous Swiss professor gave a student’s course in Basel on Riemann surfaces. After a couple of lectures, a student asked him, “Professor, you have as yet not given an exact de nition of a Riemann surface.” The professor answered, “With Riemann surfaces, the main thing is to UNDERSTAND them, not to de ne them.” The student’s objection was reasonable. From a formal viewpoint, it is of course necessary to start as soon as possible with strict de nitions, but the professor’s - swer also has a substantial background. The pure de nition of a Riemann surface— as a complex 1-dimensional complex analytic manifold—contributes little to a true understanding. It takes a long time to ...
Hamiltonian Reduction by Stages
This volume provides a detailed account of the theory of symplectic reduction by stages, along with numerous illustrations of the theory. It gives special emphasis to group extensions, including a detailed discussion of the Euclidean group, the oscillator group, the Bott-Virasoro group and other groups of matrices. The volume also provides ample background theory on symplectic reduction and cotangent bundle reduction.
Topology and Geometry
This book offers an introductory course in algebraic topology. Starting with general topology, it discusses differentiable manifolds, cohomology, products and duality, the fundamental group, homology theory, and homotopy theory. From the reviews: "An interesting and original graduate text in topology and geometry...a good lecturer can use this text to create a fine course....A beginning graduate student can use this text to learn a great deal of mathematics."—-MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
Topology Illustrated
This book follows a two-semester first course in topology with emphasis on algebraic topology. Some of the applications are: the shape of the universe, configuration spaces, digital image analysis, data analysis, social choice, exchange economy. An overview of discrete calculus is also included. The book contains over 1000 color illustrations and over 1000 exercises.
Foundations of Differentiable Manifolds and Lie Groups
Foundations of Differentiable Manifolds and Lie Groups gives a clear, detailed, and careful development of the basic facts on manifold theory and Lie Groups. Coverage includes differentiable manifolds, tensors and differentiable forms, Lie groups and homogenous spaces, and integration on manifolds. The book also provides a proof of the de Rham theorem via sheaf cohomology theory and develops the local theory of elliptic operators culminating in a proof of the Hodge theorem.
