Subject Index N2 - In the series of volumes which together will constitute the Handbook of Differential Geometry a rather complete survey of the field of differential geometry is given. The different chapters will both deal with the basic material of differential geometry and with research results (old and recent). All chapters are written by experts in the area and contain a large bibliography UR - http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780444822406 UR - http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/publication?issn=18745741&volume=1 ER -
