Stoker's Differential Geometry. It's also important to remember that differential forms don't have to be real-valued. (These titles are going to of Manifolds. Definitions of curvature, curvature tensor; Second fundamental form; Sectional and Ricci curvature; Jacobi fields. A more illuminating approach is provided by symplectic geometry, which I will now develop. Key Topics and Features: • Background material presents basic mathematical tools on manifolds and differential forms. This is my attempt to explain the concept of a differential form in differential geometry and several variable calculus; which I view as an extension of the concept of the signed integral in single variable calculus. In addition, classical differential geometry lacks the techniques that are widely applied in theoretical physics, such as differential forms. The next text up for review is J.J. In the context of string theory, in particular when we're dealing with a low energy effective action, if we have an effective action of the form: $$S_{eff} \sim S^{(0)} + \alpha S^{(1)} + (\alpha)^2 S^{(2)} + \ldots$$. Differential geometry is obsolete. This textbook introduces geometric measure theory through the notion of currents.
