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 introduction to students entering this active and rapidly growing field. The author presents a comprehensive treatment of several aspects of pseudo-Riemannian geometry, including the spectral geometry of the curvature tensor, curvature homogeneity, and Stanilov-Tsankov-Videv theory.Gilkey, Peter B. is the author of 'Geometry of Curvature Homogeneous Pseudo-riemannian Manifolds ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781860947858 and ISBN 1860947859.
