Differential geometry of lightlike submanifolds

Más información sobre el libro

There does not exist any other book covering the material presented in this volume. This makes the book a uniquely comprehensive work in the field This is the first book which contains unique existence theorems (with proofs) for the screen distributions of lightlike submanifolds Applications are focused on time-dependent realistic models of black hole horizons, lightlike versions of Osserman geometry, harmonic maps and morphisms, CR and contact structures in physics For readers who wish to do further research, there is an extensive bibliography including many papers and books on the Riemannian geometry of submanifolds Includes supplementary material: sn. pub/extras
