Description: Since the publication of the seminal work of H. Federer which gives a rather complete and comprehensive discussion on the subject, the geometric measure theory has developed in the last three decades into an even more cohesive body of basic knowledge with an ample structure of its own, establishing strong ties with many other areas of mathematics and made numerous new striking applications. The present book is intended for the researchers in other fields of mathematics as well as graduate students for a quick overview on the subject of the geometric measure theory emphasizing on various basic ideas, techniques and their applications in problems arising in the calculus of variations, geometrical analysis and nonlinear partial differential equations. This graduate-level treatment of Geometric Measure Theory illustrates with concrete examples and emphasizes basic ideas and techniques with their applications to the calculus of variations, geometrical analysis, and nonlinear PDEs. The book, in addition to a full index and bibliography, include eight main chapters.
