The students who have succeeded in this course; upon succeeding this course the student will be able to 1) know the concepts of manifold and the curvature tensor, and understood very well the role of the inner-dot product, 2) calculate the distance, area and curvature on Semi-Riemannian manifolds. 3) explain the properties of geodesics on Semi-Riemannian manifolds, and also the concepts as chronology and time cone 4) understand paradoxes in relativity. 5) Explain all properties of Warped product and the metric matrices. |
