  • General Relativity
    Trevor Underwood
    This volume provides annotated translations of the primary sources, which were largely in German, leading up to Einstein’s theory of general relativity, in which Einstein attempted to extend his theory of special relativity beyond space and time, to include matter and gravitational fields, by introducing gravity through his 'equivalence principle' - the equivalence of gravity a...

  • Global Nonlinear Stability of Schwarzschild Spacetime under Polarized Perturbations
    Jérémie Szeftel / Sergiu Klainerman
    Essential mathematical insights into one of the most important and challenging open problems in general relativity-the stability of black holesOne of the major outstanding questions about black holes is whether they remain stable when subject to small perturbations. An affirmative answer to this question would provide strong theoretical support for the physical reality of black...

  • The Wave Basis of Special Relativity
    Robert Close
    This book offers a simple, intuitive explanation of special relativity. Rather than merely describing the implications of Einstein’s postulates, we derive the consequences of special relativity from the wavelike behavior of matter, which is consistent with ordinary physical processes in Galilean spacetime. Topics covered include time dilation, length contraction, Lorentz transf...

  • EXTEND LAGRANGE & HAMILTON FORMAL FOR POINT MECH & COVARI ..
    JURGEN STRUCKMEIER & WALTER GREINER
    This book presents the extended Lagrange and Hamilton formalisms of point mechanics and field theory in the usual tensor language of standard textbooks on classical dynamics. The notion 'extended' signifies that the physical time of point dynamics as well as the space-time in field theories are treated as dynamical variables. It thus elaborates on some important questions inclu...
