书籍简介:

本书详细地讲解了3+1形式的广义相对论和数值相对论基础。本书从研究相对论所必备的数学工具,如微分几何、超曲面的嵌入等讲起,逐步引入了爱因斯坦方程、物质和电磁场方程等的3+1分解。之后,通过更高等的数学工具,如共形变换等,讨论了现代相对论的一些重要问题。

内容摘要:

《广义相对论的3 1形式》详细地讲解了3 1形式的广义相对论和数值相对论基础。本书从研究相对论所必备的数学工具,如微分几何、超曲面的嵌入等讲起,逐步引入了爱因斯坦方程、物质和电磁场方程等的3 1分解。之后,通过更高等的数学工具,如共形变换等,讨论了现代相对论的一些重要问题。

编辑推荐:

尽管物理学家提出了一些新理论,但相对论目前依然是唯一成熟的现代引力理论。而对于相对论的研究也远远没有走到尽头,其丰富内涵依然有待发掘。《广义相对论的3 1形式》讲述了相对论的基本理论和数值方法的基础。对于从事或有志于从事相对论研究的研究人员或研究生,本书都是不可错过的杰作。
