  2. Summary of Riemanian Geometry and Vielbein formulation Manifolds

  3. Introduction to manifolds

  4. Privileged observers and affine manifolds Both Newtonian Physics and Special Relativity have privileged observers Affine Manifold

  5. Affine Manifolds

  6. Curved Manifolds and Atlases The intuitive idea of an atlas of open charts, suitably reformulated in mathematical terms,provides the very definition of a differentiable manifold

  7. Homeomorphisms

  8. Topology invariant underhomeomorphisms
