1Glossary of Riemannian and metric geometry — This is a glossary of some terms used in Riemannian geometry and metric geometry mdash; it doesn t cover the terminology of differential topology. The following articles may also be useful. These either contain specialised vocabulary or provide… …
2Cut locus (Riemannian manifold) — In Riemannian geometry, the cut locus of a point p in a manifold is roughly the set of all other points for which there are multiple minimizing geodesics connecting them from p, but it may contain additional points where the minimizing geodesic… …
3Differential geometry of surfaces — Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1828 In mathematics, the differential geometry of surfaces deals with smooth surfaces with various additional structures, most often, a Riemannian metric. Surfaces have been extensively studied from various perspectives:… …
4Berger-Kazdan comparison theorem — In mathematics, the Berger Kazdan comparison theorem is a result in Riemannian geometry that gives a lower bound on the volume of a Riemannian manifold and also gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the manifold to be isometric to the m… …
5Vector flow — In mathematics, the vector flow refers to a set of closely related concepts of the flow determined by a vector field. These appear in a number of different contexts, including differential topology, Riemannian geometry and Lie group theory. These …
6Riemannian geometry — Elliptic geometry is also sometimes called Riemannian geometry. Riemannian geometry is the branch of differential geometry that studies Riemannian manifolds, smooth manifolds with a Riemannian metric , i.e. with an inner product on the tangent… …
7List of differential geometry topics — This is a list of differential geometry topics. See also glossary of differential and metric geometry and list of Lie group topics. Contents 1 Differential geometry of curves and surfaces 1.1 Differential geometry of curves 1.2 Differential… …
8Sobolev inequality — In mathematics, there is in mathematical analysis a class of Sobolev inequalities, relating norms including those of Sobolev spaces. These are used to prove the Sobolev embedding theorem, giving inclusions between certain Sobolev spaces, and the… …
9Exponential map — In differential geometry, the exponential map is a generalization of the ordinary exponential function of mathematical analysis to all differentiable manifolds with an affine connection. Two important special cases of this are the exponential map …
10Collapsing manifold — For the concept in homotopy, see collapse (topology). In Riemannian geometry, a collapsing or collapsed manifold is an n dimensional manifold M that admits a sequence of Riemannian metrics gn, such that as n goes to infinity the manifold is close …
