Book cover: Tight and Taut SubmanifoldsTight and Taut Submanifolds
by - Cambridge University Press
Tight and taut submanifolds form an important class of manifolds with special curvature properties, one that has been studied intensively by differential geometers since the 1950's. This book contains six articles by leading experts in the field.
