The Geometry of Spacetime [E-Book] : A Mathematical Introduction to Relativity Theory / by Rainer Oloff.
This book systematically develops the mathematical foundations of the theory of relativity and links them to physical relations. For this purpose, differential geometry on manifolds is introduced first, including differentiation and integration, and special relativity is presented as tensor calculus...
