Introduction to smooth manifolds. New York: Springer. ISBN 0-387-95448-1. A textbook on manifold theory. See also the same author's textbooks on topological manifolds (a lower level of structure) and Riemannian geometry (a higher level of structure).
Stokes' theorem on smooth manifolds can be derived from Stokes' theorem for chains in smooth manifolds, and vice versa. [11] Formally stated, the latter reads: [ 12 ] Theorem ( Stokes' theorem for chains ) — If c is a smooth k -chain in a smooth manifold M , and ω is a smooth ( k − 1) -form on M , then ∫ ∂ c ω = ∫ c d ω ...
where ch is the Chern character, d(v f) an element of the integral cohomology group H 2 (Y, Z) satisfying d(v f) ≡ f * w 2 (TY)-w 2 (TX) mod 2, f K* the Gysin homomorphism for K-theory, and f H* the Gysin homomorphism for cohomology . [1] This theorem was first proven by Atiyah and Hirzebruch. [2] The theorem is proven by considering several ...
Putting these freedoms together, other examples of manifolds are a parabola, a hyperbola, and the locus of points on a cubic curve y 2 = x 3 − x (a closed loop piece and an open, infinite piece). However, excluded are examples like two touching circles that share a point to form a figure-8; at the shared point, a satisfactory chart cannot be ...
A topological space X is a 3-manifold if every point in X has a neighbourhood that is homeomorphic to Euclidean 3-space. The topological, piecewise-linear, and smooth categories are all equivalent in three dimensions, so little distinction is made in whether we are dealing with say, topological 3-manifolds, or smooth 3-manifolds.
The jet space can be endowed with a smooth structure (i.e. a structure as a C ∞ manifold) which make it into a topological space. This topology is used to define a topology on C ∞ ( M , N ). For a fixed integer k ≥ 0 consider an open subset U ⊂ J k ( M , N ), and denote by S k ( U ) the following:
