In the Tradition of Thurston: Geometry and Topology

图书简介

This book consists of 16 surveys on Thurston’s work and its later development. The authors are mathematicians who were strongly influenced by Thurston’s publications and ideas. The subjects discussed include, among others, knot theory, the topology of 3/manifolds, circle packings, complex projective structures, hyperbolic geometry, Kleinian groups, foliations, mapping class groups, Teichmuller theory, anti/de Sitter geometry, and co/Minkowski geometry. The book is addressed to researchers and students who want to learn about Thurston’s wide/ranging mathematical ideas and their impact. At the same time, it is a tribute to Thurston, one of the greatest geometers of all time, whose work extended over many fields in mathematics and who had a unique way of perceiving forms and patterns, and of communicating and writing mathematics.
