Geometry of Curves, Paperback by Rutter, John W., ISBN 1584881666, ISBN-13 9781584881667, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This textbook for a first semester course integrates the three main areas of curve geometry parametric, algebraic, and projective curves offering a unique approach to problem solving rather than a catalog of theorems. Rutter (U. of Liverpool) begins with the basics, then covers topics such as conics, high algebraic curves, transcendental curves, the properties of parametric curves, envelopes of curve families, and the application of projective curves to asymptotes and boundedness. Students should be familiar with elementary calculus including partial differentiation, the elementary theory of complex numbers, and elementary coordinate geometry. Annotation c.
