Total p-th curvature and foliations and connections
This thesis is in two parts. In Part I we consider integrals of the p-th power of the total curvature of a manifold immersed in R(^n) and thus introduce the notions of total p-th curvature and p-convex. This generalises the ideas of total curvature(which corresponds to total 1st curvature)and tight(...
