| Mar 30, 2011 at 15:47 | comment | added | Deane Yang | To see how this stuff is used in differential topology, look at the book by Bott and Tu. | |
| Mar 30, 2011 at 15:03 | comment | added | diverietti | Hi Olivier, it depends a lot on your kind of background. If you prefer a more geometrical/complex analytic flavor, then books as "Principle of algebraic geometry" by Griffiths and Harris, or "Complex Analytic and Differential Geometry" by Demailly are great. From a point of view of (real) differential geometry, Spivak's book is very well, but "Foundation of differentiable manifolds and Lie groups" by Warner is very good, too. | |
