Zustand: Very Good. : Este libro de texto ofrece una introducción a la relatividad general para estudiantes de matemáticas o físicos graduados. Tras una revisión de la notación tensorial cartesiana y la relatividad especial, se introducen los conceptos de geometría diferencial de Riemann. Se hace más hincapié en una comprensión intuitiva del tema y en una facilidad de cálculo que en una exposición matemática rigurosa. A continuación, la relatividad general se presenta como una teoría relativista de la gravedad que se reduce, en los límites apropiados, a la gravedad newtoniana o a la relatividad especial. Se deriva la solución de Schwarzchild y se discuten el desplazamiento al rojo gravitacional, la dilatación del tiempo y las pruebas clásicas de la relatividad general. Se ofrece una breve reseña del colapso gravitacional y los agujeros negros basada en la solución extendida de Schwarzchild. Se describen otras soluciones de vacío, motivadas por sus contrapartidas en la relatividad general linealizada. El libro termina con capítulos sobre soluciones cosmológicas a las ecuaciones de campo. Se adjuntan ejercicios a cada capítulo, algunos de los cuales amplían el desarrollo dado en el texto.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This textbook provides an introduction to general relativity for mathematics undergraduates or graduate physicists. After a review of Cartesian tensor notation and special relativity the concepts of Riemannian differential geometry are introducted. More emphasis is placed on an intuitive grasp of the subject and a calculational facility than on a rigorous mathematical exposition. General relativity is then presented as a relativistic theory of gravity reducing in the appropriate limits to Newtonian gravity or special relativity. The Schwarzchild solution is derived and the gravitational red-shift, time dilation and classic tests of general relativity are discussed. There is a brief account of gravitational collapse and black holes based on the extended Schwarzchild solution. Other vacuum solutions are described, motivated by their counterparts in linearised general relativity. The book ends with chapters on cosmological solutions to the field equations. There are exercises attached to each chapter, some of which extend the development given in the text.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is an introduction to twistor theory and modern geometrical approaches to space-time structure at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level. The choice of material presented has evolved from graduate lectures given in London and Oxford and the authors have aimed to retain the informal tone of those lectures. The book will provide graduate students with an introduction to the literature of twistor theory, presupposing some knowledge of special relativity and differential geometry. It would also be of use for a short course on space-time structure independently of twistor theory. The physicist could be introduced gently to some of the mathematics which has proved useful in these areas, and the mathematician could be shown where sheaf cohomology and complex manifold theory can be used in physics.…
