645, Fall 2007
Professor Minicozzi
Lectures:
MW 1:30 to 2:45 in Maryland 310.
Office Hours: 1-1:30 Monday and 10-10:30 on Friday in Krieger 408.
We will
follow Do Carmo's Riemannian Geometry book and see how far we can get.
There will
be written assignments roughly every couple of weeks.
There
will be no class on Wednesday 11/25 (the
day before Thanksgiving).
Homework:
The homework is the most important part of the course. Everyone is
expected to do all assignments by the date due and no late homeworks will be
accepted. I encourage you to collaborate with your classmates on the
assignments, but each student must write up (and hand in) their own
homeworks. The course grades will be determined solely from the homework
grades.
