This Element provides a somewhat comprehensive interpretation of general relativity, a description of what reality would be like if the theory were true. This concerns (i) what possibilities it ...

After thinking about the problems for 10 years, he published the general theory of relativity. In it, he suggested that gravity is not a force, as Newton had believed, but the result of a ...

Excerpt from the back cover: This book will serve readers as a modern mathematical introduction to the general theory of relativity. Throughout the book, examples, worked out problems, and exercises ...

This book provides an excellent introduction and survey of the Kerr space-time for researchers and graduate students across the spectrum of observational and theoretical astrophysics, general ...

For the first time, a mathematical framework proves that Einstein’s theory of general relativity, which explains the ...

Avi Loeb explores how experimental quantum gravity may one day help to connect the dots between quantum mechanics and general ...

"Studying the rate at which galaxies formed lets us directly test our theories and, so far, we’re lining up with what general relativity predicts at cosmological scales." General relativity has ...

The Clash of Titans: Quantum Mechanics vs. General Relativity Quantum mechanics and general relativity, developed by Albert Einstein in the early 20th century, have both stood the test of time and ...

Their observations line up with what Einstein's theory of general relativity predicts. Gravity has shaped our cosmos. Its attractive influence turned tiny differences in the amount of matter ...

Einstein’s general theory of relativity can be summed up in just 12 words: “Space-time tells matter how to move; matter tells space-time how to curve”. But this short description from the ...
