| May 26, 2020 at 15:09 | comment | added | Gabe K | This is a good answer but I would caution against using IG texts as a way of learning geometry. Information geometers have a very idiosyncratic approach to differential geometry and Lee is a much better reference for the basics. For instance, those lecture notes have a few inaccuracies with respect to differential geometry. These aren't important if you already know the subject, but would be quite misleading if you try to learn it from them. | |
