Description: Differential Topology, Hardcover by Milnor, John (EDT), ISBN 0821842307, ISBN-13 9780821842300, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Milnor (mathematics, State U. of New York at Stony Brook) feels very fortunate to have started with the topology of manifolds in the 1950s; he was able to make very significant contributions to a fresh and dynamic field, and these papers prove it. Ranging from the later 1950s and into the later 1960s, these papers and include the "exotic spheres," including a procedure for killing homotopy groups of differentiable manifolds; expository lectures on topology, differentiable structures, and smooth manifolds with boundary based on "Variedades diferenciables con frontera", papers on relations with algebraic topology, and a series on cobiordism that is evidence of a staggering level of work done in a very short time. papers are in facsimile form and contain their original pagination. The author also provides a lively account of why he dedicated this volume to Georges De Rham, Hassler Whitney, and their belioved mountains. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
