Riemannian Metrics of Constant Mass and Moduli Spaces of Conformal Structures

Lutz Habermann (eds.)9783540679875, 3-540-67987-1

This monograph deals with recent questions of conformal geometry. It provides in detail an approach to studying moduli spaces of conformal structures, using a new canonical metric for conformal structures. This book is accessible to readers with basic knowledge in differential geometry and global analysis. It addresses graduates and researchers.
