100 years of gravity and accelerated frames : the deepest insights of Einstein and Yang-Mills /
Annotation This collection of papers presents ideas and problems arising over the past 100 years regarding classical and quantum gravity, gauge theories of gravity, and spacetime transformations of accelerated frames. Both Einstein's theory of gravity and the Yang?Mills theory are gauge invaria...
