Hawking, George F. R. Ellis is een Engelstalig gedrukt boek. Deze titel is geschikt voor lezers die zich inhoudelijk willen verdiepen in dit onderwerp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1973, this influential work discusses Einstein's General Theory of Relativity to show how two of its predictions arise: first, that the ultimate fate of many massive stars is to undergo gravitational collapse to form 'black holes'; and second, that there was a singularity in the past at the beginning of the universe. Starting with a precise formulation of the theory, including the necessary differential geometry, the authors discuss the significance of space-time curvature and examine the properties of a number of exact solutions of Einstein's field equations. They develop the theory of the causal structure of a general space-time, and use it to prove a number of theorems establishing the inevitability of singularities under certain conditions. A Foreword contributed by Abhay Ashtekar and a new Preface from George Ellis help put the volume into context of the developments in the field over the past fifty years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1973, this influential work discusses Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, exploring its predictions relating to black holes and singularities in space-time.
