Description

Book Synopsis
This text on analysis of Riemannian manifolds is a thorough introduction to topics covered in advanced research monographs on Atiyah-Singer index theory. It is aimed at students who have had a first course in differentiable manifolds, and the Riemannian geometry used is developed from the beginning.

Trade Review
"The book is well written.... This book provides a very readable introduction to heat kernal methods and it can be strongly recommended for graduate students of mathematics looking for a thorough introduction to the topic." Friedbert PrÜfer, Mathematical Reviews

Table of Contents
Introduction; 1. The Laplacian on a Riemannian manifold; 2. Elements of differential geometry; 3. The construction of the heat kernel; 4. The heat equation approach to the Atiyah-Singer index theorem; 5. Zeta functions of Laplacians; Bibliography; Index.
