Description:

As an annual supplement to the Journal of Differential Geometry, Surveys in Differential Geometry focuses on specific topics of current interest. Survey articles review the current state of knowledge relating to particular questions and present new integrative results. Surveys in Differential Geometry provides both a large number of insightful and informative articles and an indispensable tool for keeping up with the wide variety of researches in Differential Geometry.

The works included in this new volume, edited by Jeffrey Cheeger and Karsten Grove, treat important recent developments in metric geometry and comparison geometry. Both these areas are vital and expanding components of modern geometry.
