General Relativity reinterprets the force of gravity not as a traditional force but as a manifestation of the curvature of spacetime. Its formulation rests on a rigorous mathematical framework built ...

Presenting a new perturbative method to deal with the gravitational N-body problem in general relativity. A novel approach to construct global and local reference frames leads to explicit ...

It stands among the most famous theories ever created, but the general theory of relativity did not spring into being with a single, astonishing paper like the special theory of relativity in 1905.

The geometry of spacetime forms the very foundation of modern gravitational theory, where the elegant interplay between curvature and matter is described by Einstein’s field equations. In this ...
