Introduction to Differential Geometry (88-526)
This was a one-semester, two-hour-a-week course that I gave in 1996/7
covering
the classical differential geometry of curves and surfaces. It was intended
as a bridge to prepare students with very little geometric background
for a course in modern differential geometry. I
distributed 4 exercise sets: they consist of some "classic"
problems and some computational exercises, some taken from books, some
home-grown.

Addendum: I am now aware of three books in Hebrew about the material
of this course, the books of Marcus, Furstenburg and Farber. All can
be found in our department library.
