Publisher Description This graduate level text covers an exciting and active area of research at the crossroads of several different fields in Mathematics and Physics. In Mathematics it involves Differential Geometry, Complex Algebraic Geometry, Symplectic Geometry, and in Physics String Theory and Mirror Symmetry. Drawing extensively on the authors previous work, the text explains the advanced mathematics involved simply and clearly to both mathematicians and physicists. Startingwith the basic geometry of connections, curvature, complex and Kähler structures suitable for beginning graduate students, the text covers seminal results such as Yaus proof of the Calabi Conjecture, andtakes the reader all the way to the frontiers of current research in calibrated geometry, giving many open problems. Author Biography Dominic Joyce came up to Oxford University in 1986 to read Mathematics. He held an EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship from 2001-2006, was recently promoted to professor, and now leads a research group in Homological Mirror Symmetry. His main research areas so far have been compact manifolds with the exceptional holonomy groups G 2 and Spin(7), and special Lagrangian submanifolds, a kind of calibrated submanifold. He is married, with two daughters. Details ISBN 0199215596 ISBN-13 9780199215591 Title Riemannian Holonomy Groups and Calibrated Geometry Author Dominic D.
