Differential FormsCartan’s calculus of differential forms is particularly useful in general relativity (but also in other fields of physics). We begin our discussion by repeating some algebraic preliminaries.

Affine ConnectionsIn this section we introduce an important additional structure on differentiable manifolds, thus making it possible to define a “covariant derivative” which transforms tensor fields into other tensor fields.

Einstein’s Field Equationsystems. The hard core of the theory, however, consists of ., which relate the metric field to matter. After a discussion of the physical meaning of the curvature tensor, we shall first give a simple physical motivation for the field equations and will then show that they are determined by only a few natural requirements’.
