Synopsis

Topics in Differential Geometry is a collection of papers related to the work of Evan Tom Davies in differential geometry. Some papers discuss projective differential geometry, the neutrino energy-momentum tensor, and the divergence-free third order concomitants of the metric tensor in three dimensions. Other papers explain generalized Clebsch representations on manifolds, locally symmetric vector fields in a Riemannian space, mean curvature of immersed manifolds, and differential geometry of totally real submanifolds. One paper considers the symmetry of the first and second order for a vector. Contents: Evan Tom Davies by Clark, R.S.; Reminiscences of E.T.
