Group theory and general relativity. Representations of the Lorentz group and their applications to the gravitational field
Book
·
OSTI ID:6327943
The applications of group theory to general relativity theory are considered. An extensive discussion of general relativity from the point of view of gauge fields and a collection of many original works on the use of group theory for these purposes. The theory of representations of Lorentz group rotations, exact solutions of gravitational field equations, Bondi--Metzner--Sachs group representations, and the fundamentals of general relativity are covered. 1300 references.
