Description
Fibre bundles, an integral part of differential geometry, are also important to physics. This text, a succint introduction to fibre bundles, includes such topics as differentiable manifolds and covering spaces. It provides brief surveys of advanced topics, such as homotopy theory and cohomology theory, before using them to study further properties of fibre bundles.
