In this book the authors study the differential geometry of varieties with degenerate Gauss maps. They use the main methods of differential geometry, namely, the methods of moving frames and exterior differential forms as well as tensor methods. By means of these methods, the authors discover the structure of varieties with degenerate Gauss maps, determine the singular points and singular varieties, find focal images and construct a classification of the varieties with degenerate Gauss maps.

The authors introduce the above mentioned methods and apply them to a series of concrete...

This textbook presents the foundations of tensor calculus and the elements of tensor analysis, in addition to considering numerous applications of tensors to geometry, mechanics and physics. While developing tensor calculus, the authors emphasize its relationship with linear algebra. Necessary notions and theorems of linear algebra are introduced and proved in connection with the construction of the apparatus of tensor calculus; prior knowledge is not assumed. For simplicity and to enable the reader to visualize concepts more clearly, all exposition is conducted in three-dimensional space....

Conformal differential geometry plays an important role in many areas of differential geometry and other fields of mathematics. Since the late 1800s, various developments in this field have occurred. The main notions discussed in the book include the importance of surfaces with isometric or spherical curvature lines, canal surfaces, congruence of circles, and three-orthogonal systems of surface.
