Differential geometry is the study of smooth manifolds and the intrinsic properties of spaces that can be described locally by Euclidean geometry. Within this expansive field, singularities represent ...
A differential form is (technically) a function that we can calculate value at a point and AFAIK it has nothing to do with infinitesimals nor tends to anything. A course in precalculus, calculus, or even real analysis almost never gives an answer to "What is dx?". It is only until differential geometry, one gets to learn what it is. One should not learn these from Wikipedia but from a ...
In the field of Differential Geometry we are concerned with Riemannian manifolds or more generally (inner) metric spaces. We are interested in the interplay between their curvature and global ...
The study of differential algebraic geometry and model theory occupies a pivotal position at the interface of algebra, geometry, and logic. Differential algebraic geometry investigates solution sets ...

Differential manifolds provide higher dimensional generalizations of surfaces. They appear in a very natural manner in many areas of mathematics and physics. On a differential manifold or more ...
The right question is not "What is a differential?" but "How do differentials behave?". Let me explain this by way of an analogy. Suppose I teach you all the rules for adding and multiplying rational numbers. Then you ask me "But what are the rational numbers?" The answer is: They are anything that obeys those rules. Now in order for that to make sense, we have to know that there's at least ...
