Mathematical Aspects of Superspace (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1984): H.J. Seifert, C. J. S. Clarke,... Mathematical Aspects of Superspace (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1984)

Over the past five years, through a continually increasing wave of activity in the physics community, supergravity has come to be regarded as one of the most promising ways of unifying gravity with other particle interaction as a finite gauge theory to explain the spectrum of elementary particles. Concurrently im portant mathematical works on the arena of supergravity has taken place, starting with Kostant's theory of graded manifolds and continuing with Batchelor's work linking this with the superspace formalism. There remains, however, a gap between the mathematical and physical approaches expressed by such unanswered questions as, does there exist a superspace having all the properties that physicists require of it? Does it make sense to perform path integral in such a space? It is hoped that these proceedings will begin a dialogue between mathematicians and physicists on such questions as the plan of renormalisation in supergravity. The contributors to the proceedings consist both of mathe maticians and relativists who bring their experience in differen tial geometry, classical gravitation and algebra and also quantum field theorists specialized in supersymmetry and supergravity. One of the most important problems associated with super symmetry is its relationship to the elementary particle spectrum."

When Color Fades is a stirring look into the anatomy of memory loss and the frailty of misconstrued relationships. It untangles hard truth with gentle irony as it explores a mother and daughter's turbulent pursuit of closure. When Annabelle's husband dies unexpectedly, she tears up a letter he wrote alerting their daughter Lily of Annabelle's diagnosis of early onset Alzheimer's Disease. Annabelle becomes obsessed about destroying the contents of a red box where she once hid her darkest childhood memories.

The Analysis of Space-Time Singularities (Paperback): C. J. S. Clarke The Analysis of Space-Time Singularities (Paperback)

R1,934 Discovery Miles 19 340 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The different possible singularities are defined and the mathematical methods needed to extend the space-time are described in detail in this book. Results obtained (many appearing here for the first time) show that singularities are associated with a lack of smoothness in the Riemann tensor.

Relativity on Curved Manifolds (Paperback, New Ed): F. De Felice, C. J. S. Clarke Relativity on Curved Manifolds (Paperback, New Ed)

R3,307 Discovery Miles 33 070 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This is a self-contained exposition of general relativity with emphasis given to tetrad and spinor structures and physical measurements on curved manifolds. General relativity is now essential to the understanding of modern physics, but the power of the theory cannot be fully explained without a detailed knowledge of its mathematical structure. The aim of this book is to introduce this structure, and then to use it to develop those applications that have been central to the growth of the theory. An overview of differential geometry is provided and properties of a tetrad field are then extensively analysed. These are used to introduce spinors, to describe the geometry of congruences and define the physical measurements on a curved manifold. The coupling of fields and geometry is investigated in terms of Lagrangeans and a detailed discussion of some exact solutions of the Einstein equations are provided.
