• Computational Geometry: Methods and Applications (Jianer Chen)

  An introduction to some of the fundamental principles of computational geometry, concentrates on four major directions in computational geometry: the construction of convex hulls, proximity problems, searching problems and intersection problems.

• Lectures on Symplectic Geometry (Ana Cannas da Silva)

  The goal of these notes is to provide a fast introduction to symplectic geometry for graduate students with some knowledge of differential geometry, de Rham theory and classical Lie groups.

• Fractal Geometry: Mathematical Foundations and Applications

  This book has become a seminal text on the mathematics of Fractals. It introduces the general mathematical theory and applications of fractals in a way that is accessible to students from a wide range of disciplines.

• Spatial Data Science: With Applications in R (Edzer Pebesma, et al)

  Introduces and explains the concepts underlying Spatial Data, gives a detailed explanation of the core spatial software packages for R: sf for simple feature access, and stars for raster and vector data cubes – array data with spatial and temporal dimensions.

• Geospatial Analysis: Principles, Techniques and Software Tools

  This book provides a compehensive guide to concepts, methods and tools, with many examples being provided using a variety of software tools such as ArcGIS, Idrisi, Grass, Surfer and many others to clarify the concepts discussed

• A Practical Guide to Geostatistical Mapping (Tomislav Hengl)

  This book is a practical guide to geostatistical mapping using R+gstat/geoR, SAGA GIS and Google Earth combo of software packages. Includes seven diverse data analysis exercises.

• Topology: A Categorical Approach (Tai-Danae Bradley, et al)

  A graduate-level textbook that presents basic topology from the perspective of category theory. Many graduate students are familiar with the ideas of point-set topology and they are ready to learn something new about them.

• Introduction to Topology (Bert Mendelson, et al.)

  This concise book offers an ideal introduction to the fundamentals of topology. The book's principal aim is to provide a simple, thorough survey of elementary topics in the study of collections of objects, or sets, that possess a mathematical structure.

• Elementary Topology: Problem Textbook (O.Ya.Viro, et al.)

  This textbook on elementary topology contains a detailed introduction to general topology and an introduction to algebraic topology via its most classical and elementary segment centered at the notions of fundamental group and covering space.
