Etale Cohomology Theory (Revised Edition)

Etale cohomology is an important branch in arithmetic geometry. This book covers the main materials in SGA 1, SGA 4, SGA 4 1/2 and SGA 5 on etale cohomology theory, which includes decent theory, etale fundamental groups, Galois cohomology, etale cohomology, derived categories, base change theorems, duality, and ℓ-adic cohomology. The prerequisites for reading this book are basic algebraic geometry and advanced commutative algebra.

A Brief Introduction To Symplectic And Contact Manifolds

The book introduces the basic notions in Symplectic and Contact Geometry at the level of the second year graduate student. It also contains many exercises, some of which are solved only in the last chapter.We begin with the linear theory, then give the definition of symplectic manifolds and some basic examples, review advanced calculus, discuss Hamiltonian systems, tour rapidly group and the basics of contact geometry, and solve problems in chapter 8. The material just described can be used as a one semester course on Symplectic and Contact Geometry.The book contains also more advanced material, suitable to advanced graduate students and researchers.

Minimal Submanifolds And Related Topics (Second Edition)

In the theory of minimal submanifolds, Bernstein's problem and Plateau's problem are central topics. This important book presents the Douglas-Rado solution to Plateau's problem, but the main emphasis is on Bernstein's problem and its new developments in various directions: the value distribution of the Gauss image of a minimal surface in Euclidean 3-space, Simons' work for minimal graphic hypersurfaces, and the author's own contributions to Bernstein type theorems for higher codimension. The author also introduces some related topics, such as submanifolds with parallel mean curvature, Weierstrass type representation for surfaces of mean curvature 1 in hyperbolic 3-space, and special Lagrangian submanifolds.This new edition contains the author's recent work on the Lawson-Osserman's problem for higher codimension, and on Chern's problem for minimal hypersurfaces in the sphere. Both Chern's problem and Lawson-Osserman's problem are important problems in minimal surface theory which are still unsolved. In addition, some new techniques were developed to address those problems in detail, which are of interest in the field of geometric analysis.

Topology and Physics

This unique volume, resulting from a conference at the Chern Institute of Mathematics dedicated to the memory of Xiao-Song Lin, presents a broad connection between topology and physics as exemplified by the relationship between low-dimensional topology and quantum field theory.The volume includes works on picture (2+1)-TQFTs and their applications to quantum computing, Berry phase and YangOCoBaxterization of the braid relation, finite type invariant of knots, categorification and Khovanov homology, GromovOCoWitten type invariants, twisted Alexander polynomials, Faddeev knots, generalized Ricci flow, CalabiOCoYau problems for CR manifolds, Milnor''s conjecture on volume of simplexes, Heegaard genera of 3-manifolds, and the (A, B)-slice problem. It also includes five unpublished papers of Xiao-Song Lin and various speeches related to the memorial conference

Geometry And Analysis On Finsler Spaces

Finsler geometry is just Riemannian geometry without a quadratic restriction. It has applications in many fields of natural sciences, including physics, psychology, and ecology. The book is intended to provide basic materials on Finsler geometry for readers and to bring them to the frontiers of active research on related topics.This book is comprised of three parts. In Part I (Chapters 1-4), the author introduces the basics, such as Finsler metrics, the Chern connection, geometric invariant quantities, etc., and gives some rigidity results on Finsler manifolds with certain curvature properties. Part II (Chapters 5-6) covers the theory of geodesics, using which the author establishes some comparison theorems, which are fundamental tools to study global Finsler geometry. In Part III (Chapters 7-9), the author presents recent developments in nonlinear geometric analysis on Finsler spaces, partly based on the author's recent works on Finsler harmonic functions, the eigenvalue problem, and heat flow. The author has made efforts to ensure that the contents are accessible to advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers who are interested in Finsler geometry.
