Riemannian circle

In metric space theory and Riemannian geometry, the Riemannian circle is a great circle with a characteristic length. It is the circle equipped with the intrinsic Riemannian metric of a compact one-dimensional manifold of total length 2π, or the extrinsic metric obtained by restriction of the intrinsic metric to the two-dimensional surface of the sphere, rather than the extrinsic metric obtained by restriction of the Euclidean metric to the unit circle of the two-dimensional Cartesian plane. The distance between a pair of points on the surface of the sphere is defined to be the length of the shorter of the two arcs into which the circle is partitioned by the two points. It is named after German mathematician Bernhard Riemann. (Wikipedia).

MATH331: Riemann Surfaces - part 1

We define what a Riemann Surface is. We show that PP^1 is a Riemann surface an then interpret our crazy looking conditions from a previous video about "holomorphicity at infinity" as coming from the definition of a Riemann Surface.

Some identities involving the Riemann-Zeta function.

After introducing the Riemann-Zeta function we derive a generating function for its values at positive even integers. This generating function is used to prove two sum identities. http://www.michael-penn.net http://www.randolphcollege.edu/mathematics/

Curvature of a Riemannian Manifold | Riemannian Geometry

In this lecture, we define the exponential mapping, the Riemannian curvature tensor, Ricci curvature tensor, and scalar curvature. The focus is on an intuitive explanation of the curvature tensors. The curvature tensor of a Riemannian metric is a very large stumbling block for many student

Riemann Sum Defined w/ 2 Limit of Sums Examples Calculus 1

I show how the Definition of Area of a Plane is a special case of the Riemann Sum. When finding the area of a plane bound by a function and an axis on a closed interval, the width of the partitions (probably rectangles) does not have to be equal. I work through two examples that are rela

Quickly fill in the unit circle by understanding reference angles and quadrants

👉 Learn about the unit circle. A unit circle is a circle which radius is 1 and is centered at the origin in the cartesian coordinate system. To construct the unit circle we take note of the points where the unit circle intersects the x- and the y- axis. The points of intersection are (1, 0
