Based on lectures given at a summer school on computer algebra, the
book provides a didactic description of the facilities available in
three computor algebra systems - MAPLE, REDUCE and SHEEP - for
performing calculations in the algebra-intensive field of general
relativity. With MAPLE and REDUCE, two widespread great-purpose
systems, the reader is shown how to use currently available
packages to perform calculations with respect to tetrads,
co-ordinate systems, and Poincare` gauge theory. The section on
SHEEP and Stensor, being the first published book on these systems,
explains how to use these systems to tackle a wide range of
calculations with respect to tackle a wide range of calculations in
general relativity, including the manipulation of indicial
formulae. For the researcher in general relativity, the book
therefore promises a wide overview of the facilities available in
computer algebra to lessen the burden of the lengthy, error-prone
calculations involved in their research.
