Download or read book Einstein Manifolds written by Arthur L. Besse and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-12-03 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Einstein's equations stem from General Relativity. In the context of Riemannian manifolds, an independent mathematical theory has developed around them. This is the first book which presents an overview of several striking results ensuing from the examination of Einstein’s equations in the context of Riemannian manifolds. Parts of the text can be used as an introduction to modern Riemannian geometry through topics like homogeneous spaces, submersions, or Riemannian functionals.
