Calculations are presented by paying attention to those details normally omitted in research papers, for pedagogical r- sons. Familiarity with fibre-bundle theory is certainly helpful, but in many cases I only rely on two-spinor calculus and conformally invariant concepts in gravitational physics. The key concepts the book is devoted to are complex manifolds, spinor techniques, conformal gravity, ?-planes, ?-surfaces, Penrose transform, complex 3 1 – – space-time models with non-vanishing torsion, spin- fields and spin- potentials. 2 2 Problems have been inserted at the end, to help the reader to check his und- standing of these topics. Thus, I can find at least four reasons for writing yet another book on spinor and twistor methods in general relativity: (i) to write a textbook useful to - ginning graduate students and research workers, where two-component spinor c- culus is the unifying mathematical language.Fundamental theories of physics ;v. 69.General relativity (Physics)Quantum gravitySupersymmetryElectronic books.General relativity (Physics)Quantum gravity.Supersymmetry.530.1/1Esposito Giampiero44196MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454671003321Complex General Relativity376171UNINA
