Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The general theory of relativity, as formulated by Albert Einstein in 1915, provided an astoundingly original perspective on the physical nature of gr- itation, showing that it could be understood as a feature of a curvature in the four-dimensional continuum of space-time. Now, some 90 years later, this extraordinary theory stands in superb agreement with observation, prov- ing a profound accord between the theory and the actual physical behavior of astronomical bodies, which sometimes attains a phenomenal precision (in one case to about one part in one hundred million million, where several d- ferent non-Newtonian e ects, including the emission of gravitational waves, are convincingly con rmed). Einstein's tentative introduction, in 1917, of an additional term in his equations, speci ed by a 'cosmological constant', - pearsnowtobeobservationallydemanded,andwiththistermincluded,there is no discrepancy known between Einstein's theory and classical dynamical behavior, from meteors to matter distributions at the largest cosmological scales.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is about the mathematical theory of light propagation in media on general-relativistic spacetimes. The first part discusses the transition from Maxwell's equations to ray optics. The second part establishes a general mathematical framework for treating ray optics as a theory in its own right, making extensive use of the Hamiltonian formalism. This part also includes a detailed discussion of variational principles (i.e., various versions of Fermat's principle) for light rays in general-relativistic media. Some applications, e.g. to gravitational lensing, are worked out. The reader is assumed to have some basic knowledge of general relativity and some familiarity with differential geometry. Some of the results are published here for the first time, e.g. a general-relativistic version of Fermat's principle for light rays in a medium that has to satisfy some regularity condition only.…
