What is Introduction to Riemannian Geometry about?
This chapter provides an informal introduction to concepts from Riemannian geometry that will provide background for information geometry. It defines manifolds as topological spaces with charts that map to Euclidean spaces smoothly. Tangent spaces are constructed at each point on a manifold by borrowing the vector space structure from these charts. Tensors and forms are introduced as multilinear functions on manifolds that generalize concepts from linear algebra.
