| Dec 7, 2012 at 1:05 | comment | added | user332 | Carl, I don't think these are the same notes. Bott also has notes giving an exposition of Morse theory, which is what I am after. | |
| Dec 6, 2012 at 21:03 | comment | added | Carl Futia | P.S. Just noticed that this is a scan of an autographed copy. Can't do better than that! | |
| Dec 6, 2012 at 20:58 | comment | added | Carl Futia | These notes were published by Benjamin in 1969 under the title "Lectures on K(X). Here is a link to a scanned copy: google.com/… | |

| Dec 6, 2012 at 16:54 | comment | added | Jim Humphreys | Note that Dick Palais participates in MO and has his email address posted at UC Irvine. It's worth consulting him. Also, Bott was very fond of Morse theory and lectured many times on the subject. It's worth checking his collected papers published by AMS. One survey (available online at www.ams.org/journals/): Lectures on Morse theory, old and new. Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. (N.S.) 7 (1982), no. 2, 331–358. | |
