Lectures on Differential Geometry (Conference Proceedings and Lecture Notes in Geometry and Topology)

In the Spring of 1984, the authors gave a series of lectures in the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton. These lectures, which continued throughout the 1984-1985 academic year, are published in this volume. Lectures on Differential Geometry was originally printed in Chinese, and widely circulated in China. This greatly anticipated English translation is an essential reference tool for Differential Geometry. Differential Geometry has progressed rapidly in this century. This book describes the major achievements in this field.
