Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations in Differential Geometry (IAS/Park City Mathematics Series)

The lecture notes from a July 1992 minicourse in Park City, Utah, for graduate students and research mathematicians in differential geometry and partial differential equations. They survey the current state of such aspects as the Moser-Trudinger inequality and its applications to some problems in conformal geometry, the effect of curvature on the behavior of harmonic functions and mapping, and singularities of geometric variational problems.
