Tutorials and computer-based support

In addition to normal tutorials, time could be arranged in a graphics computer lab to learn to use a computer algebra package for calculations in differential geometry and for plotting of surfaces and curves. The figures above were created using the software Mathematica and freely available packages accompanying the book by Alfred Gray, Modern Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces. Boca Raton: CRC Press, Second Edition, 1998. Introductory Mathematica packages, and some for curves and surfaces can be found via the webpage Mathematica for curves and surfaces.
