Description
This book discusses in detail the mathematical aspects and physical applications of a new geometrical structure of space-time. It is based on a generalization ("deformation") of the usual Minkowski space, supposedly endowed with a metric whose coefficients depend on the energy.Energy and Geometry: Geometrical Description of Interactions is suitable for researchers, academics and students in mathematical and theoretical physics.This book has been selected for coverage in:* CC / Physical, Chemical & Earth Sciences* Index to Scientific Book Contents (R) (ISBC)
