Andriy Burkov shares that Ulrich Pinkall and Oliver Gross's 2024 book "Differential Geometry: From Elastic Curves to Willmore Surfaces" is now in ChapterPal's open books collection, readable with an AI tutor. The book studies smooth manifolds — how curves, surfaces, and higher-dimensional spaces bend, twist, and deform. Full table of contents included, covering curves in Rn, arclength, bending energy, and variations of curves.
