Название: Introduction to 2-Spinors in General Relativity

Автор: O'Donnel P.

Аннотация:

O'Donnell (Anglia Polytechnic University, UK) introduces 2-spinor formalism in general relativity in this text for those at the graduate and research levels. The text begins by developing spinors in a geometrical way, then concentrates on the algebra and calculus of spinors connected with curved space-time. The text concludes with an analysis of the Lanczos spinor. Exercises are included
