  • An Introduction to Differential Geometry - With the Use of Tensor Calculus

    by Luther Pfahler Eisenhart ...
    Since 1909, when my Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces was published, the tensor calculus, which had previously been invented by Ricci, was adopted by Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity, and has been developed further in the study of Riemannian Geometry and various generalizations of the latter. In the present book the tensor calculus of cuclidean 3-space is developed and then ... Read more

  • The Large Scale Structure of Space-Time

    by S. W. Hawking, G. F. R. Ellis ...
    Series series Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics
    Einstein's General Theory of Relativity leads to two remarkable predictions: first, that the ultimate destiny of many massive stars is to undergo gravitational collapse and to disappear from view, leaving behind a 'black hole' in space; and secondly, that there will exist singularities in space-time itself. These singularities are places where space-time begins or ends, and the presently known ... Read more

  • An Introduction to Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics

    by Robert H. Swendsen ...
    Series series Oxford Graduate Texts
    This text presents the two complementary aspects of thermal physics as an integrated theory of the properties of matter. Conceptual understanding is promoted by thorough development of basic concepts. In contrast to many texts, statistical mechanics, including discussion of the required probability theory, is presented first. This provides a statistical foundation for the concept of entropy, which ... Read more
