Lectures on complex geometry, Calabi-Yau manifolds and toric geometry
by Vincent Bouchard
Publisher: arXiv 2007
Number of pages: 63
Description:
These are introductory lecture notes on complex geometry, Calabi-Yau manifolds and toric geometry. We first define basic concepts of complex and Kahler geometry. We then proceed with an analysis of various definitions of Calabi-Yau manifolds. The last section provides a short introduction to toric geometry.

The Geometrization of Physics
by Richard S. Palais - University of California at Irvine
The major goal of these notes is to develop an observation that not only can gauge fields of the Yang-Mills type be unified with the Einstein model of gravitation, but also that when this unification is made they are described by pure geometry.

Noncommutative Geometry, Quantum Fields and Motives
by Alain Connes, Matilde Marcolli - American Mathematical Society
The unifying theme of this book is the interplay among noncommutative geometry, physics, and number theory. The two main objects of investigation are spaces where both the noncommutative and the motivic aspects come to play a role.

Geometry of Quantum Mechanics
by Ingemar Bengtsson - Stockholms universitet, Fysikum
These are the lecture notes from a graduate course in the geometry of quantum mechanics. The idea was to introduce the mathematics in its own right, but not to introduce anything that is not directly relevant to the subject.
