The Geometry Of Curvature Homogeneous Pseudo-riemannian Manifolds.

Pseudo-Riemannian geometry is an active research field not only in differential geometry but also in mathematical physics where the higher signature geometries play a role in brane theory. An essential reference tool for research mathematicians and physicists, this book also serves as a useful intro...
