.In short, a riemannian manifold is a manifold endowed with or possessing a metric tensor, and equipped with a riemannian metric. Blair d.e., 1976, contact manifolds in riemannian geometry, lecture notes in math.
(the contact analogue of the yamabe problem.
Many other results and techniques might reasonably claim a place in an introductory riemannian geometry course, but could not be included due to time constraints. Recently i have been studying differential geometry, including riemannian geometry. Contact geometry has been seen to underly many physical phenomena and is related to many other mathematical structures. $\begingroup$ i would counter that you don't need a riemannian metric to study geometry on a manifold.
