MATH 344 Differential Geometry 6 credits
Differential geometry is the study of shapes (like curves and surfaces) using tools from linear algebra and calculus. In this course we focus on the differential geometry of curves and surfaces and the concepts of curvature, geodesics, and first and second fundamental forms. These concepts will lead us to remarkable results like the Theorem Egregium and the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem, which relate the ways that curvature and shape interact.
