Geometric properties of natural operators defined by the Riemann curvature tensor / Peter B. Gilkey.

A central problem in differential geometry is to relate algebraic properties of the Riemann curvature tensor to the underlying geometry of the manifold. The full curvature tensor is in general quite difficult to deal with. This book presents results about the geometric consequences that follow if va...
