Its title accurately reflects the domains to which Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat has made essential contributions. Since the rise of General Relativity, the geometry of Manifolds has become a non-trivial part of space-time physics. At the same time, Functional Analysis has been of enormous importance in Quantum Mechanics, and Quantum Field Theory. Its role becomes decisive when one considers the global behaviour of solutions of differential systems on manifolds. In this sense, General Relativity is an exceptional theory in which the solutions of a highly non-linear system of partial differential equations define by themselves the very manifold on which they are supposed to exist. This is why a solution of Einstein‘s equations cannot be physically interpreted before its global behaviour is known, taking into account the entire hypothetical underlying manifold. In her youth, Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat contributed in a spectacular way to this domain stretching between physics and m | 出版日期 | Conference proceedings 1994 | 关键词 | Albert Einstein; curvature; electromagnetic wave; functional analysis; manifold; mathematical physics; mec | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-011-1938-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-4857-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-011-1938-2Series ISSN 0921-3767 Series E-ISSN 2352-3905 | issn_series | 0921-3767 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 1994 |
