The Art of Gluing Space-Time Manifolds: Methods and Applications

The Art of Gluing Space-Time Manifolds: Methods and Applications by Samad Khakshournia , Reza Mansouri
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 126 Pages | ISBN : 3031486110 | 9.7 MB

This concise book reviews methods used for gluing space-time manifolds together. It is therefore relevant to theorists working on branes, walls, domain walls, concepts frequently used in theoretical cosmology, astrophysics, and gravity theory. Nowadays, applications are also in theoretical condensed matter physics where Riemannian geometry appears. The book also reviews the history of matching conditions between two space-time manifolds from the early times of general relativity up to now.

In 1908, three years after Einstein first published his special theory of relativity, the mathematician Hermann Minkowski introduced his four-dimensional “spacetime” interpretation of the theory. Einstein initially dismissed Minkowski’s theory, remarking that “since the mathematicians have invaded the theory of relativity I do not understand it myself anymore.” Yet Minkowski’s theory soon found wide acceptance among physicists, including eventually Einstein himself, whose conversion to Minkowski’s way of thinking was engendered by the realization that he could profitably employ it for the formulation of his new theory of gravity.

Noncommutative Spacetimes: Symmetries in Noncommutative Geometry and Field Theory by Paolo Aschieri
English | PDF | 2009 | 205 Pages | ISBN : 3540897925 | 2.2 MB

There are many approaches to noncommutative geometry and to its use in physics. This volume addresses the subject by combining the deformation quantization approach, based on the notion of star-product, and the deformed quantum symmetries methods, based on the theory of quantum groups.

In Process and Reality and other works, Alfred North Whitehead struggled to come to terms with the impact the new science of quantum mechanics would have on metaphysics.

Spacetime, Geometry and Gravitation

Spacetime, Geometry and Gravitation by Pankaj Sharan
English | PDF | 357 Pages | ISBN : 3764399708 | 5.02 MB

This is an introductory book on the general theory of relativity based partly on lectures given to students of M.Sc. Physics at my university. The book is divided into three parts. The ?rst part is a preliminary course on general relativity with minimum preparation.
