Resources

  • Book Lee - Introduction to Smooth Manifolds, gratis verkrijgbaar via de website van Springer. (This is for the students that want a book that does more things for them, e.g. more details. But please be aware that, as good/attractive as that sounds, having (too) many things done for you is not necessarily positive ...).
  • Dictation There are lecture notes for the course, which will be made available on the webpage of the course: https://webspace.science.uu.nl/~crain101/manifolds-2021/ These will be a revised version of the lecture notes from the previous year- see https://webspace.science.uu.nl/~crain101/manifolds-2020/
  • Book Guillemin, Pollack - Differential Topology - (This is for the students that want to get some more geometric, intuitive insight, with some nicer stories, not all details worked out but fun to read/consult e.g. during a train ride).
