Abstract
The chapter will illustrate how concepts in differential geometry arise
naturally in different areas of mathematical physics. We will describe
manifolds, fibre bundles, (co)tangent bundles, metrics and symplectic
structures, and their applications to Lagrangian mechanics, field theory
and Hamiltonian systems, including various examples related to inte-
grable systems and topological solitons.
