    Extrinsic geometric flows are characterized by a submanifold evolving in an ambient space with velocity determined by its extrinsic curvature. The goal of this book is to give an extensive introduction to a few of the most prominent extrinsic flows, namely, the curve shortening flow, the mean curvature flow, the Gauss curvature flow, the inverse-mean curvature flow, and fully nonlinear flows of mean curvature and inverse-mean curvature type. The authors highlight techniques and behaviors that frequently arise in the study of these (and other) flows. To illustrate the broad applicability of the techniques developed, they also consider general classes of fully nonlinear curvature flows. The book is written at the level of a graduate student who has had a basic course in differential geometry and has some familiarity with partial differential equations. It is intended also to be useful as a reference for specialists. In general, the authors provide detailed proofs, although for some more specialized results they may only present the main ideas; in such cases, they provide references for complete proofs. A brief survey of additional topics, with extensive references, can be found in the notes and commentary at the end of each chapter.

    Representation theory plays important roles in geometry, algebra, analysis, and mathematical physics. This book presents an introduction to the representation theory of finite groups from an algebraic point of view, regarding representations as modules over the group algebra. It is suitable for a year-long graduate course.

    Probability theory has become a convenient language and a useful tool in many areas of modern analysis. This book intends to explore part of this connection concerning the relations between Brownian motion on a manifold and analytical aspects of differential geometry. It begins with a review of stochastic differential equations on Euclidean space.
