Hardback. Exact solutions to Einstein's equations have been useful for the understanding of general relativity in many respects. They have led to such physical concepts as black holes and event horizons, and helped to visualize interesting features of the theory. This book studies the solutions to the Ernst equation associated to Riemann surfaces in detail. Series: Lecture Notes in Physics. Num Pages: 249 pages, 57 black & white illustrations, biography.
