This course is an introduction to the study of Riemannian geometry via the methods of calculus and differential equations. It includes both the use of geometrical methods in the study of partial differential equations and the application of the theory of partial differential equations to geometry. We study the Maximum Principles, Liouville Theorem for Harmonic functions, Bishop-Gromov Volume Comparison Theorem, Bochner formulas, Harnack Estimate for the Heat equation, Ricci Solitons, and Harmonic forms on Riemannian Manifolds.
