Introduction to differential geometry and differential topology. Contents: Curves, (hyper-)surfaces in \(\mathbb{R}^n\), geodesics, curvature, Theorema Egregium, Theorem of Gauss-Bonnet. Hyperbolic space. Differentiable manifolds, immersions and embeddings, Sard's Theorem, mapping degree and intersection number, vector bundles, vector fields and flows, differential forms, Stokes' Theorem.
The course will follows the Differential Geometry I course taught by Prof. Urs Lang in 2019 (see literature below).
The handwritten slides from the lecture are available here: part 1, part 2 and part 3.
Lectures will take place in-person and will be live streamed.
The lecture will be streamed live on the ETH Video Portal.
Recordings will be available
here,
usually the morning after the lecture.

See the official documentation for more tecnical informations.
Recordings of last year's Differential Geometry I (HS 21) are also available on the ETH video platform.The new exercise sheet will be uploaded on this page on Monday. You are supposed to have a look at it before the exercise class, so that you can ask questions if you need to. You have time until the following Monday at 12:15 to upload your solutions.
Please, upload your solution via the SAM upload tool.
In order to access the website you will need a NETHZ-account and you will have to be connected to the ETH-network. From outside the ETH network you can connect to the ETH network via VPN. Here are instructions on how to do that.
Make sure that your solution is one PDF file and that its file name is formatted in the following way:
solution_<number of exercise sheet>_<your last name>_<your first name>.pdf
Example:
solution_2_Surname_Name.pdf.
