The Mathematical Works of J. H. C. Whitehead, Volume 1: Differential Geometry contains all of Whitehead's published work on differential geometry, along with some papers on algebras. Most of these were written in the period 1929-1937, but a few later articles are included. The book begins with a list of Whitehead's works, in chronological order of writing as well as a biographical note by M. H. A. Newman and Barbara Whitehead, and a mathematical appreciation by John Milnor. This is followed by separate chapters on topics such as linear connections; a method of obtaining normal representations for a projective connection; representation of projective spaces; convex regions in the geometry of paths; locally homogeneous spaces in differential geometry; and the decomposition of an infinitesimal group. Also included are chapters on locally homogeneous spaces in differential geometry; Maurer's equations; linear associative algebras; an expression of Hopf's invariant as an integral; and normalizators of transformation groups.
Volume one of the collected mathematical works of J. H. C. Whitehead contains a biographical note, a mathematical appreciation, and all published work dealing with his first interests--geometry and differential geometry. Most of these were written in the period 1929-1937, although some later articles are included, in addition to some papers on algebras.
J.C. Whitehead discusses his family history. He also discusses the history and success of the Bank of Mississippi from 1876 to 1991, banking issues and practices in Mississippi, and the arrival of ATMs and debit cards.
