Gravitation:the Spacetime Structure: Proceedings Of The Viii Latin American Symposium On Relativity And Gravitation


Book Description

This volume contains five mini-courses: Nakedly Singular Solutions of Einstein's Equations (K Lake); Clifford Algebras, Relativity and Quantum Mechanics (P Lounesto); Numerical Relativity and Dynamical Evolution of Black Hole Spacetimes (R Matzner); Soliton and Vacua in Relativity Theory Revisited (G W Gibbons); Cosmic Strings and Their Observational Consequences (E P S Shellard); and seventy-seven research papers by Latin American scientists.




Clifford Algebras with Numeric and Symbolic Computations


Book Description

This edited survey book consists of 20 chapters showing application of Clifford algebra in quantum mechanics, field theory, spinor calculations, projective geometry, Hypercomplex algebra, function theory and crystallography. Many examples of computations performed with a variety of readily available software programs are presented in detail.

Deep Beauty


Book Description

No scientific theory has caused more puzzlement and confusion than quantum theory. Physics is supposed to help us to understand the world, but quantum theory makes it seem a very strange place. This book is about how mathematical innovation can help us gain deeper insight into the structure of the physical world. Chapters by top researchers in the mathematical foundations of physics explore new ideas, especially novel mathematical concepts at the cutting edge of future physics. These creative developments in mathematics may catalyze the advances that enable us to understand our current physical theories, especially quantum theory. The authors bring diverse perspectives, unified only by the attempt to introduce fresh concepts that will open up new vistas in our understanding of future physics.
