Riemannian Geometry - Examples, pullback: Oxford Mathematics 4th Year Student Lecture

Riemannian Geometry is the study of curved spaces. It is a powerful tool for taking local information to deduce global results, with applications across diverse areas including topology, group theory, analysis, general relativity and string theory.

In these two introductory lectures (this is the second) from the Riemannian Geometry course, Jason Lotay gives the definition of Riemannian manifolds and describes some important examples.

You can watch many other student lectures via our main Student Lectures playlist (also check out specific student lectures playlists):

All first and second year lectures are followed by tutorials where students meet their tutor to go through the lecture and associated problem sheet and to talk and think more about the maths. Third and fourth year lectures are followed by classes.

Thank you, is there a way for a math grad student in france to follow your course ? I mean, is there a procedure ?
