An Invitation to Lorentzian Geometry

Abstract: The intention of this article is to give a flavour of some global problems in General Relativity. We cover a variety of topics, some of them related to the fundamental concept of Cauchy hypersurfaces: (1) structure of globally hyperbolic spacetimes, (2) the relativistic initial value problem, (3) constant mean curvature surfaces, (4) singularity theorems, (5) cosmic censorship and Penrose inequality, (6) spinors and holonomy.

“…В работах [16], [97], [101] изучаются различные глобальные геометрические свойства лоренцевых многообразий с разными группами голономии. Группы голономии обсуждаются в недавнем обзоре по глобальной лоренцевой геометрии [105]. В [16] рассматриваются лоренцевы многообразия с несвязными группами голономии, приводятся примеры.…”
