Nonsmooth differential geometry : an approach tailored for spaces with Ricci curvature bounded from below / Nicola Gigli.

"We discuss in which sense general metric measure spaces possess a first order differential structure. Building on this, we then see that on spaces with Ricci curvature bounded from below a second order calculus can be developed, permitting to define Hessian, covariant/exterior derivatives and...
