Special Topics:Differential Geometry

Classical differential geometry uses differential calculus to study the properties of figures such as curves and surfaces in Euclidean planes or spaces. Modern differential geometry expands this to include non-euclidean spaces, and higher-dimensional submanifolds, but still based on the methods of differential and integral calculus.
