Moreover, the recent development revealed that affine differential geometry - as differential geometry in general - has an exciting intersection area with other fields of interest, like partial differential equations, global analysis, convex geometry and Riemann surfaces.The second edition of this monograph leads the reader from introductory concepts to recent research. Since the publication of the first edition in 1993 there appeared important new contributions, like the solutions of two different affine Bernstein conjectures, due to Chern and Calabi, respectively. Moreover, a large subclass of hyperbolic affine spheres were classified in recent years, namely the locally strongly convex Blaschke hypersurfaces that have parallel cubic form with respect to the Levi-Civita connection of the Blaschke metric. The authors of this book present such results and new methods of proof. 410 0$aDe Gruyter expositions in mathematics ;$vVolume 11. 606 $aGlobal differential geometry 606 $aHypersurfaces 610 $aAffine differential geometry. 610 $aGlobal differential geometry. 610 $aHypersurfaces. 615 0$aGlobal differential geometry. 615 0$aHypersurfaces. 676 $a516.3/62 700 $aLi$b An-Min, $0726115 702 $aLi$b Anmin 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788820303321 996 $aGlobal affine differential geometry of hypersurfaces$93764866 997 $aUNINA
