Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The book aims to expound the general theory of relativity with a mathematical point of view. Catering to the needs of postgraduate students and researchers in the field of astrophysics and mathematical physics, it offers the readers a comprehensive understanding of the advanced topics of the subject matter. It specifically discusses the mathematical foundation of tensor calculus, gives a background of geodesics, Einstein's field equations, linearised gravity, spacetime of spherically symmetric distribution of matter and black holes, and particle and photon orbits in spacetime. Apart from the formulation of general relativity, Lie derivatives and its applications, and causality of spacetime are also discussed in detail. Certain preliminary concepts of extrinsic curvature, Lagrangian formalism of general theory of relativity and 3 + 1 decomposition of space-time are covered and are provided in the book as appendices. Suitable for postgraduate students and researchers in the field of astrophysics and mathematical physics, this book lays the mathematical foundation of tensor calculus. With basics of cosmology and astrophysics, it gives a background of geodesics, linearised gravity, Lie derivatives, rotating black holes and causal structure of space-time. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781108837996
