Abstract:
This is an introductory course in Riemannian and Lorentzian Geometry. The prerequisites for the course are real analysis and general topology. The following is a brief description of the course.
1 Riemannian Geometry
We will give a quick introduction to di
erential manifolds and give a brief discussions of Riemannian metrics, including various notions of curvature.
2 Lorenzian Geometry
Basic notions in Lorentzian geometry will be discussed through numerous examples.
Hawkings black hole topology theorem and its generalizations will be proved here.
We will spend a signi
