Zusammenfassung:This book is focused on the interrelations between the curvature and the geometry of Riemannian manifolds. It contains research and survey articles based on the main talks delivered at the International Congress "Curvature in Geometry", held in Lecce, Italy, June 11-14, 2003. The congress was organized in honor of Lieven Vanhecke, as a tribute to his many contributions to mathematics. The volume describesrecent developments and research trends in several relevant topics related to Riemannian geometry, the field in which the mathematical activity of L. Vanhecke is most fruitful and inspiring. Contributors include: Blair, D.; Borisenko, A.;Calvaruso, G.;Cortes, V.;Djoric, M.;Ferrarotti, M.;Garcia?Rio, E.;Gilkey, P.;Gil?Medrano, O.;Gonzàles Dàvila, C.;Hajkova, V.; Huckleberry, A.;Kowalski, O.;Nagy, P.; Naveira, A.;Okumura, M.; Sekigawa, K.;Terng, C.L.;Tsukada, K.;and Wolf, J. This bookwill appeal to graduate students and researchers in diverse areas of geometry.
