At least I felt like my undergrad analysis was basically repeating calculus, onyl with all the proofs this time (And my calculus course had all the proofs to start with!). So Calculus on Manifolds would at least show that there is more calculus to learn, and the algebra of differential forms would show how "algebra" can be very useful in a geometric/analytic context. | |
