Spacetime and Singularities: An Introduction Paperback - 1989

by Gregory L. Naber


From the publisher

Naber provides an elementary introduction to the geometrical methods and notions used in special and general relativity. Particular emphasis is placed on the ideas concerned with the structure of space-time and that play a role in the Penrose-Hawking singularity theorems. The author's primary purpose is to give a rigorous proof of the simplest of these theorems, by the one that is representative of the whole. He provides exercises and examples at the end of each chapter. No previous exposure either to relativity theory of differential geometry is required of the reader, as necessary concepts are developed when needed, though some restrictions ae imposed on the types of space considered.

First line

Minkowski spacetime is a 4-dimensional real vector space M on which is defined a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form g of index one; elements of M will be called events.
