Causal symmetric spaces [electronic resource] : geometry and harmonic analysis / Joachim Hilgert, Gestur Ólafsson.
This book is intended to introduce researchers and graduate students to the concepts of causal symmetric spaces. To date, results of recent studies considered standard by specialists have not been widely published. This book seeks to bring this information to students and researchers in geometry and...
