About

About the course

Course content

This course builds on TMA4190 Manifolds.

The goal is to introduce the fundamental concepts of differential topology. The topics to be studied are: Manifolds, tangent spaces, differential forms local and global, de Rham cohomology, Stokes theorem in n dimensions. Topological and geometric applications.



Learning outcome

Give the students an introduction to modern differential topology, showing the connection between topology and analysis and give an understanding of modern geometric reasoning.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, exercises and projects. The final grade is based 100% on the final exam.

The lectures will be given in English if they are attended by students
from the Master's Programme in Mathematics for International students.

Course materials

Will be announced at the start of the course.
