内容説明・目次

内容説明

In Minkowski-Space the space-time of special relativity is discussed on the basis of fundamental results of space-time theory. This idea has the consequence that the Minkowski-space can be characterized by 5 axioms, which determine its geometrical and kinematical structure completely. In this sense Minkowski-Space is a prolegomenon for the formulation of other branches of special relativity, like mechanics, electrodynamics, thermodynamics etc. But these applications are not subjects of this book. Contents Basic properties of special relativity Further properties of Lorentz matrices Further properties of Lorentz transformations Decomposition of Lorentz matrices and Lorentz transformations Further structures on Ms Tangent vectors in Ms Orientation Kinematics on Ms Some basic notions of relativistic theories
