商品描述

Based on the ideas of Einstein and Minkowski, this concise treatment is derived from the author's many years of teaching the mathematics of relativity at the University of Michigan. Geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students of physics, the text covers old physics, new geometry, special relativity, curved space, and general relativity.
Beginning with a discussion of the inverse square law in terms of simple calculus, the treatment gradually introduces increasingly complicated situations and more sophisticated mathematical tools. Changes in fundamental concepts, which characterize relativity theory, and the refinements of mathematical technique are incorporated as necessary. The presentation thus offers an easier approach without sacrifice of rigor.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本簡明的著作基於愛因斯坦和明可夫斯基的理念,作者多年來在密西根大學教授相對論數學的經驗中得出。該書適合物理學高年級本科生和研究生閱讀,內容涵蓋了舊物理學、新幾何學、特殊相對論、曲線空間和廣義相對論。
從以簡單微積分解釋的反比平方定律開始,這本書逐漸引入越來越複雜的情境和更精密的數學工具。相對論理論所特有的基本概念變化以及數學技巧的改進都被納入其中。因此,這本書提供了一種更容易理解的方法,同時又不失嚴謹性。
