This volume is based on the lectures given at the First Inter
University Graduate School on Gravitation and Cosmology organized
by IUCAA, Pune, in 1989. This series of Schools have been carefully
planned to provide a sound background and preparation for students
embarking on research in these and related topics. Consequently,
the contents of these lectures have been meticulously selected and
arranged. The topics in the present volume offer a firm
mathematical foundation for a number of subjects to be de veloped
later. These include Geometrical Methods for Physics, Quantum Field
Theory Methods and Relativistic Cosmology. The style of the book is
pedagogical and should appeal to students and research workers
attempt ing to learn the modern techniques involved. A number of
specially selected problems with hints and solutions have been
included to assist the reader in achieving mastery of the topics.
We decided to bring out this volume containing the lecture notes
since we felt that they would be useful to a wider community of
research workers, many of whom could not participate in the school.
We thank all the lecturers for their meticulous lectures, the
enthusiasm they brought to the discussions and for kindly writing
up their lecture notes. It is a pleasure to thank G. Manjunatha for
his meticulous assistence over a long period, in preparing this
volume for publication."
