This volume deals with the fundamental concepts of space, time and
matter. It presents a novel reformulation of both the special and
general theory of relativity, in which time does not constitute the
fourth dimension in a conventional 4-dimensional space-time.
Instead, the role of time is played by the flow of a vector field
on a 3-dimensional space. The standard models of de Sitter,
Schwarzschild and Kerr space-times are reformulated in a purely
3-dimensional manifold.The volume also presents a theory of matter
in which the fundamental particles, such as baryons and leptons,
appear as a result of an interaction between left-handed and
right-handed 2-component Weyl neutrinos. The Appendices contain a
comprehensive treatment of classical mechanics in terms of
Hamiltonian vector fields on symplectic manifolds. Graduate
students of mathematical physics or theoretical physics, as well as
academics, will find this volume of interest.
