Subsequent chapters then develop such topics as Hermitian exterior algebra and the Hodge *-operator, harmonic theory on compact manifolds, differential operators on a Kahler manifold, the Hodge decomposition theorem on compact Kahler manifolds, the Hodge-Riemann bilinear relations on Kahler manifolds, Griffiths's period mapping, quadratic transformations, and Kodaira's vanishing and embedding theorems. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe third edition of this standard reference contains a new appendix by Oscar Garcia-Prada which gives an overview of the developments in the field during the decades since the book appeared.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom a review of the 2nd Edition:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e“..the new edition ofProfessor Wells' book is timely and welcome...an excellent introduction for any mathematician who suspects that complex manifold techniques may be relevant to his work.”\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNigel Hitchin, Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e“Its purpose is to present the basics of analysis and geometry on compact complex manifolds, and is already one of the standard sources for this material.”\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2007-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387738918\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-73892-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 299\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44499565871244,"sku":"9780387738918","price":58.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387738918.jpg?v=1775711779","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780387738918","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
