Titre(s) : The conformal structure of space-time [Texte électronique] : geometry, analysis, numerics / J. Frauendiener, H. Friedrich (eds.)
Publication : Berlin ; New York : Springer, cop. 2002
Description matérielle : 1 online resource (xiv, 373 pages)
Collection : Lecture notes in physics ; 604
Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
Causal relations, and with them the underlying null cone or conformal structure, form
a basic ingredient in all general analytical studies of asymptotically flat space-time.
The present book reviews these aspects from the analytical, geometrical and numerical
points of view. Care has been taken to present the material in a way that will also
be accessible to postgraduate students and nonspecialist reseachers from related fields
