217 Lectures on Poisson Geometry, Marius Crainic, Rui Loja Fernandes, Ioan Mărcuț (2021, ISBN 978-1-4704-6430-1) 218 Lectures on Differential Topology, Riccardo Benedetti (2021, ISBN 978-1-4704-6674-9) 219 Essentials of Tropical Combinatorics, Michael Joswig (2021, ISBN 978-1-4704-6653-4)
His "Lectures on Differential Geometry" [25] is a popular standard textbook for upper-level undergraduate courses on differential manifolds, the calculus of variations, Lie theory and the geometry of G-structures. He also published the more recent "Curvature in mathematics and physics". [26]
Later the Geometry Center at the University of Minnesota sold a loosely bound copy of the notes. In 2002, Sheila Newbery typed the notes in TeX and made a PDF file of the notes available, which can be downloaded from MSRI using the links below. The book (Thurston 1997) is an expanded version of the first three chapters of the notes. In 2022 the ...
For a new edition, Scheffers added an appendix with 46 pages of historical notes for the first and second volumes. [7] Another very successful book was prepared for students of science and technology: Lehrbuch der Mathematik (textbook of mathematics). [8] It provided an introduction to analytic geometry as well as calculus of derivatives and ...

Differential geometry is also indispensable in the study of gravitational lensing and black holes. Differential forms are used in the study of electromagnetism. Differential geometry has applications to both Lagrangian mechanics and Hamiltonian mechanics. Symplectic manifolds in particular can be used to study Hamiltonian systems.
