Lesson period
First semester
Prerequisites for admission
Basic concepts from the theory of (real) differential geometry and complex analysis.
Assessment methods and Criteria
The final examination consists of an oral exam on appointment. In the oral exam, the student will be required to illustrate results presented during the course and will be required to solve problems regarding the matter covered in the course in order to evaluate her/his knowledge and comprehension of the arguments covered as well as the capacity to apply them. Final marks are given using the numerical range 0-30, and will be communicated immediately after the oral examination.
