Features: "Introduction to Differential Geometry and General Relativity" (Volume 1) is suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students in physics departments, as well as physicists, especially those specializing in relativity. Readers who are not interested in relativity but wish to learn modern differential geometry can use the first five chapters of "Introduction to Differential Geometry and General Relativity" (Volume 1) as an introductory step. This book (Volume 1) consists of 10 chapters. The first five chapters cover introductory knowledge of differential geometry. Chapter 6 uses this knowledge to analyze special relativity, while chapters 7 to 10 introduce the basic content of general relativity. This book emphasizes a low starting point (equivalent to the level of a second or third-year undergraduate in a physics department) and strives to simplify complex concepts, making them accessible. Various measures have been taken to reduce difficulty. This book is suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate students in physics departments, as well as physicists, especially those specializing in relativity. Readers who are not interested in relativity but wish to learn modern differential geometry can also use the first five chapters of this book as an introductory step.
