Metric and Differential Geometry grew out of a similarly named conference held at Chern Institute of Mathematics, Tianjin and Capital Normal University, Beijing. The various contributions to this volume cover a broad range of topics in metric and differential geometry, including metric spaces, Ricci flow, Einstein manifolds, Kähler geometry, index theory, hypoelliptic Laplacian and analytic torsion. It offers the most recent advances as well as surveys the new developments. Contributors: M.T. AndersonJ.-M. BismutX. ChenX. DaiR. HarveyP. KoskelaB. LawsonX. MaR. MelroseW. MüllerA. NaorJ. SimonsC.
