Critical point theory in global analysis and differential topology an introduction

The study of global analysis or differential topology requires a knowledge not only of the separate techniques of analysis, differential geometry, topology and algebra, but a deeper understanding of how these fields can join forces. The distinction between global analysis and differential topology c...

Description
Summary:The study of global analysis or differential topology requires a knowledge not only of the separate techniques of analysis, differential geometry, topology and algebra, but a deeper understanding of how these fields can join forces. The distinction between global analysis and differential topology corresponds to the contrast between a theory of equilibria in analysis and the role of nondegenerate (ND) functions as a structural basis for homotopy or homology theory on differentiable manifolds
