About the course
Riemannian Geometry is the study of curved spaces known as Riemannian manifolds extending the theory of surfaces in R^3. This course will focus on the key notions of geodesics and curvature and will study their interaction using Jacobi fields. The highlight of the course is a series of local-to-global theorems demonstrating how curvature influences topology.
