A Brief Introduction to Topology and Differential Geometry in Condensed Matter Physics

A Brief Introduction to Topology and Differential Geometry in Condensed Matter PhysicsIn recent years, there have been great advances in the applications of topology and differential geometry to problems in condensed matter physics. Concepts drawn from topology and geometry have become essential to the understanding of several phenomena in the area. The main purpose of this book is to provide a brief, self contained introduction to some mathematical ideas and methods from differential geometry and topology, and to show a few
