Mathematical and quantum aspects of relativity and cosmology : proceedings of the second Samos meeting on cosmology, geometry, and relativity, held at Pythagoreon, Samos, Greece, 31 August-4 September 1998

This book is written in a pedagogical style intelligible for graduate students. It reviews recent progress in black-hole and wormhole theory and in mathematical cosmology within the framework of Einstein's field equations and beyond, including quantum effects. This collection of essays, written...
