MATH 371 - Modern Geometry

Topics in geometry selected by the instructor. Possible courses include classical Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry (Hilbert’s axioms; parallel postulate; hyperbolic, elliptic, spherical, projective geometries; Poincare models), differential geometry (calculus on surfaces; curvature; minimal surfaces; geodesics; the Gauss-Bonet theorem), computational geometry (triangulation; point location; voronoi diagrams; linear programming). Prerequisite(s): MATH 236 and MATH 237 (4 Credits)
