Lectures on Differential Geometry
by John Douglas Moore
Publisher: University of California 2009
Number of pages: 263
Description:
This course will describe the foundations of Riemannian geometry, including geodesics and curvature, as well as connections in vector bundles, and then go on to discuss the relationships between curvature and topology. Topology will presented in two dual contrasting forms, de Rham cohomology and Morse homology.

Lectures on Geodesics in Riemannian Geometry
by M. Berger - Tata Institute of Fundamental Research
The main topic of these notes is geodesics. Our aim is to give a fairly complete treatment of the foundations of Riemannian geometry and to give global results for Riemannian manifolds which are subject to geometric conditions of various types.

A Sampler of Riemann-Finsler Geometry
by D. Bao, R. Bryant, S. Chern, Z. Shen - Cambridge University Press
Finsler geometry generalizes Riemannian geometry in the same sense that Banach spaces generalize Hilbert spaces. The contributors consider issues related to volume, geodesics, curvature, complex differential geometry, and parametrized jet bundles.

Riemannian Geometry: Definitions, Pictures, and Results
by Adam Marsh - arXiv
A pedagogical but concise overview of Riemannian geometry is provided in the context of usage in physics. The emphasis is on defining and visualizing concepts and relationships between them, as well as listing common confusions and relevant theorems.
