Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Une introduction détaillée à la théorie de la relativité générale d’Einstein Voici un ouvrage d'introduction à la théorie d'Einstein de la gravitation qui s'adresse avant tout à un public d'étudiants ou d'enseignants en physique au niveau du deuxième et troisième cycle. Reposant sur les cours donnés depuis plusieurs années à l'Université de Cambridge par les auteurs, il commence par une présentation moderne et pédagogique des outils mathématiques nécessaires, en particulier le calcul tensoriel sur un espace courbe. De nombreux exemples et applications détaillés Loin de se perdre dans un formalisme abstrait qui pourrait rebuter certains étudiants, l’ouvrage multiplie les exemples et applications détaillés (études de surfaces bidimensionnelles courbes, etc.). Les outils mathématiques sont ensuite appliqués en physique. La relativité restreinte et l'électromagnétisme relativiste étant les sujets les plus intéressants et les plus simples pour qui veut aborder la théorie d'Einstein, ils sont revus dans un esprit géométrique qui conduit naturellement à l'exposé des principes de base de la relativité générale. Les problèmes classiques de gravitation relativiste sont ensuite traités (géométrie de la solution de Schwarzschild et des trous noirs, cosmologie, ondes gravitationnelles). L'ouvrage se distingue par de nombreux calculs détaillés rarement présentés dans des ouvrages d'introduction (par exemple celui des orbites possibles autour d'un trou noir en rotation) ou en relation avec la recherche de pointe, particulièrement sur la cosmologie, domaine de prédilection des auteurs. Des outils pédagogiques Plusieurs appendices proposent des compléments d'information de nature mathématique, historique ou physique qui permettent au lecteur souhaitant approfondir son étude de la relativité générale de disposer de pistes intéressantes. Ce manuel facile d’accès contient plus de 300 exercices pour éclairer et pour étendre les sujets abordés dans le texte.

Download or read book The Physical and Mathematical Foundations of the Theory of Relativity written by Antonio Romano and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-25 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique textbook offers a mathematically rigorous presentation of the theory of relativity, emphasizing the need for a critical analysis of the foundations of general relativity in order to best study the theory and its implications. The transitions from classical mechanics to special relativity and then to general relativity are explored in detail as well, helping readers to gain a more profound and nuanced understanding of the theory as a whole. After reviewing the fundamentals of differential geometry and classical mechanics, the text introduces special relativity, first using the physical approach proposed by Einstein and then via Minkowski’s mathematical model. The authors then address the relativistic thermodynamics of continua and electromagnetic fields in matter – topics which are normally covered only very briefly in other treatments – in the next two chapters. The text then turns to a discussion of general relativity by means of the authors’ unique critical approach, underlining the difficulty of recognizing the physical meaning of some statements, such as the physical meaning of coordinates and the derivation of physical quantities from those of space-time. Chapters in this section cover the model of space-time proposed by Schwarzschild; black holes; the Friedman equations and the different cosmological models they describe; and the Fermi-Walker derivative. Well-suited for graduate students in physics and mathematics who have a strong foundation in real analysis, classical mechanics, and general physics, this textbook is appropriate for a variety of graduate-level courses that cover topics in relativity. Additionally, it will interest physicists and other researchers who wish to further study the subtleties of these theories and understand the contemporary scholarly discussions surrounding them.
Download or read book Mathematical Problems of General Relativity I written by Demetrios Christodoulou and published by European Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2008 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General relativity is a theory proposed by Einstein in 1915 as a unified theory of space, time and gravitation. It is based on and extends Newton's theory of gravitation as well as Newton's equations of motion. It is thus fundamentally rooted in classical mechanics. The theory can be seen as a development of Riemannian geometry, itself an extension of Gauss' intrinsic theory of curved surfaces in Euclidean space. The domain of application of the theory is astronomical systems. One of the mathematical methods analyzed and exploited in the present volume is an extension of Noether's fundamental principle connecting symmetries to conserved quantities. This is involved at a most elementary level in the very definition of the notion of hyperbolicity for an Euler-Lagrange system of partial differential equations. Another method, the study and systematic use of foliations by characteristic (null) hypersurfaces, is in the spirit of Roger Penrose's approach in his incompleteness theorem. The methods have applications beyond general relativity to problems in fluid mechanics and, more generally, to the mechanics and electrodynamics of continuous media. The book is intended for advanced students and researchers seeking an introduction to the methods and applications of general relativity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1916. PREFACE: The present book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. The work presumes a standard of education corresponding to that of a university matriculation examination, and, despite the shortness of the book, a fair amount of patience and force of will on the part of the reader....Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mathematical Theory of Relativity The reader is expected to have a general acquaintance with the less technical discussion of the theory given in Space, Time and Gravitation, although there is not often occasion to make direct reference to it. But it is eminently desirable to have a general grasp of the revolution of thought associated with the theory of Relativity before approaching it along the narrow lines of strict mathematical deduction. In the former work we ex plained how the older conceptions of physics had become untenable, and traced the gradual ascent to the ideas which must supplant them. Here our task is to formulate mathematically this new conception of the world and to follow out the consequences to the fullest extent. The present widespread interest in the theory arose from the verification of certain minute deviations from Newtonian laws. To those who are still hesitating and reluctant to leave the old faith, these deviations will remain the chief centre of interest; but for those who have caught the spirit of the new ideas the observational predictions form only a minor part of the subject. It is claimed for the theory that it leads to an understanding of the world of physics clearer and more penetrating than that previously attained, and it has been my aim to develop the theory in a form which throws most light on the origin and significance of the great laws of physics.
