Summary

Brought together in this book are papers from a conference on differential geometry held in Pisa, in honour of Eugenio Calabi. The contributions are from many of the leading authorities in this field and together they cover a wide spectrum of topics that give an unsurpassed overview of research into differential geometry. All whose research interests lie in this area will find much of interest in this volume.
