Title: Riemannian Geometry of Contact and Symplectic Manifolds Progress in Mathematics
Description: , Birkhäuser, 2nd ed. 2010. 360, 2 x 15,4 x 23 cm, Hardcover. Zustand: 2. This second edition, divided into fourteen chapters, presents a comprehensive treatment of contact and symplectic manifolds from the Riemannian point of view. The monograph examines the basic ideas in detail and provides many illustrative examples for the reader. Riemannian Geometry of Contact and Symplectic Manifolds, Second Edition provides new material in most chapters, but a particular emphasis remains on contact manifolds. Researchers, mathematicians, and graduate students in contact and symplectic manifold theory and in Riemannian geometry will benefit from this work. A basic course in Riemannian geometry is a prerequisite Conten: Preface * 1. Symplectic Manifolds * 2. Principal S1-bundles * 3. Contact Manifolds * 4. Associated Metrics * 5.
