ASTR 103 - Astronomy Relativity - General Theory Latest Modification: November 30, 1998 Newtonian Gravity - Problems Newtonian cosmology failed to develop a grand (encompassing) theory of gravity Serious defect in that gravity acted instantaneously everywhere Example - When apple falls to ground every place in universe receives information simultaneously Newtonian gravity ignores fact that speed of light is finite and information does not travel with infinite speed, i.e., inconsistent with special relativity Newtonian gravity overturns law of causality and allows effects to precede causes because of infinite speed of light Newtonian Space-Time Euclidean geometry, reasonable assumptions about nature of space Parallel postulate Given straight line and point not on straight line, one and only one straight line equidistant from given straight line may be drawn through given point Experience suggests that these two lines remain equidistant (parallel) across all space even though we can not verify it Plane triangle: sum of angles = 180 o Pythagorean theorem: c = a + b Space is absolute and time is absolute; both are unchanging

Find the lowest price Customer Reviews Spacetime and Geometry: An Introduction to General Relativity To learn GR, read this one first... I may be biased (as a student there), but the University of Chicago has the market for textbooks on GR cornered. Between Sean Carroll and Bob Wald, the student has everything he needs. I do have to reccomend reading this one first though, as the explanations are more physical (where Wald is more formal) and the style is more readable and easier to digest. In short it is probably the best book on the market from which to learn GR. Once you finish this book, add Wald's to your library for a more complete reference set (Wald's book is likely the best on the market once you already know GR). Great GR Book!

Demonstration 1 (bondi): One step calculation of the covariant Riemann, Ricci and Einstein tensors for the Bondi metric.

The idea is to calculate the number of terms in the covariant Ricci tensor in n dimensions. The most general form of the metric tensor is used, that is n(n+1)/2 functions of n variables.

With an accessible and lively writing style, it introduces modern techniques to what can often be a formal and intimidating subject. Readers are led from the physics of flat spacetime (special relativity), through the intricacies of differential geometry and Einstein's equations, and on to exciting applications such as black holes, gravitational radiation, and cosmology. For advanced undergraduates and graduate students, or anyone interested in astronomy, cosmology, physics, or general relativity. About the Author Sean Carroll is an assistant professor in the Physics Department, Enrico Fermi Institute, and Center for Cosmological Physics at the University of Chicago. His research ranges over a number of topics in theoretical physics, focusing on cosmology, field theory, and gravitation. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard in 1993, and spent time as a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Theoretical Physics at MIT and the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He has been awarded fellowships from the Sloan and Packard foundations, as well as the MIT Graduate Student Council Teaching Award.

Application of Geometry to Medical Imaging: Brain Conformal Mapping Shing-Tung Yau Harvard University 12 June, 2003, 4:00pm IPAM Building, Room 1200 Refreshments will be served. Prof. Yau's Biography Prof. Yau, who came to Harvard in 1987, was cited for "profound contributions to mathematics that have had a great impact on fields as diverse as topology, algebraic geometry, general relativity, and string theory. His work insightfully combines two different mathematical approaches and has resulted in the solution of several longstanding and important problems in mathematics." The National Medal of Science can be added to his long list of other prizes. He won a MacArthur "genius" award in 1985 and the Fields Medal, the highest honor in mathematics, in 1982. Yau, whose field combines differential geometry and partial differential equations, received the National Medal of Science for his impact on fields as diverse as topology, algebraic geometry, general relativity, and string theory. Yau's combination of two different mathematical approaches has resulted in the solution of several longstanding and important problems in mathematics. Previously, his collaborative work has used the positivist of space-time and the condensation of matter to explain the problems of relativity theory and black holes.

Differential geometry over general base fields and rings. Part I: First and second order geometry Auteur(s): Wolfgang BERTRAM Le document est une prépublication Code(s) de Classification MSC 22E65 Infinite-dimensional Lie groups and their Lie algebras [See also 53B05 Linear and affine connections 53C35 Symmetric spaces [See also 58A05 Differentiable manifolds, foundations 58A20 Jets Résumé The aim of this work is to lay the foundations of differential geometry over the general class of topological base fields and rings for which a differential calculus has been developed in [BGN93], without any restriction on the dimension or on the characteristic. Our point of view is classical in the sense that we work in the context of manifolds which are defined in the usual way using charts and atlasses, but we believe that the main ingredients carry over to more general and more formal concepts (cf. Appendix G). Two basic features distinguish our approach from the classical real (finite or infinite dimensional) theory (as laid e.g. in [La99]): the use of scalar extensions and the introduction of a linear algebra concept for non-linear bundles. The use of scalar extensions by dual numbers in order to modelize tangent objects is known from algebraic geometry and from "synthetic differential geometry " (cf., e.g., [MR91]). We establish a natural version of this procedure in the context of general differential calculus: the tangent functor is the functor of scalar extension by dual numbers; iterating this, we get as powerful tool the interpretation of jet functors as functors of scalar extensions by "jet rings".
