The ricci flow in Riemannian geometry a complete proof of the differentiable 1/4-pinching sphere theorem

The ricci flow in Riemannian geometry a complete proof of the differentiable 1/4-pinching sphere theorem

This book focuses on Hamilton's Ricci flow, beginning with a detailed discussion of the required aspects of differential geometry, progressing through existence and regularity theory, compactness theorems for Riemannian manifolds, and Perelman's noncollapsing results, and culminating in a...
