This book deals with 2-spinors in general relativity, beginning by developing spinors in a geometrical way rather than using representation theory, which can be a little abstract. This gives the reader greater physical intuition into the way in which spinors behave. The book con…

Providing relevant solutions of the Einstein equation, this text introduces field equations of general relativity & their supporting mathematics. Emphasis is on the connection between observation & theory and the phenomena of gravitational physics.

This monograph explains and analyzes the principles of a quantum-geometric framework for the unification of general relativity and quantum theory. By taking advantage of recent advances in areas like fibre and superfibre bundle theory, Krein spaces, gauge fields and groups, cohe…
Introduction Preliminaries The fractional step scheme The Riemann problem step The ODE step Estimates for the ODE step Analysis of the approximate solutions The elimination of assumptions Convergence.
Spacetime and Geometry: An Introduction to General Relativity provides a lucid and thoroughly modern introduction to general relativity. With an accessible and lively writing style, it introduces modern techniques to what can often be a formal and intimidating subject. Readers a…
Since the publication of Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity in 1905, the discovery of such astronomical phenomena as quasars, pulsars, and black holes all intimately connected to relativity has provoked a tremendous upsurge of interest in the subject. This volume, a revised…
One of the clearest, most entertaining introductions to the subject offers lucid explanations of not only the special and general theories of relativity, but also of the Michelson-Morley experiment, gravity and spacetime, Mach's principle, the twin paradox, models of the univers…
"Thoroughly revised and updated, and now also including special relativity, this book provides a pedagogical introduction to relativity. It is based on lectures given by the author in Jena over the last decades, and covers the material usually presented in a three-term course on…
