The main focus of this book is to introduce readers to new and emerging areas of geometry, such as differential geometry, algebraic geometry, and discrete geometry, and to explore their applications in various fields of science and engineering.
This book is aimed towards mathematicians, scientists, and graduate students who are interested in learning about the recent advancements in geometry and its applications.
Some specific topics covered in this book include manifolds, Lie groups, topological methods, differential equations, algebraic curves and surfaces, and geometric combinatorics.
This book stands out from others as it not only covers traditional topics in geometry, but also delves into newer areas and their applications, providing a comprehensive overview of the field.
While this book can be used for self-study, it is recommended to have a strong background in mathematics, particularly in calculus and linear algebra, before attempting to read it. It is best used as a supplementary text for graduate courses in geometry.
