Synopsis
A systematic, self-contained text that provides an introduction to 3-D spinors & their applications and fills a gap in the literature. Includes detailed treatment of spin-weighted harmonics and many applications from electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, & general relativity. Assumes no previous knowledge of spinors; includes all prerequisites. Ideal for graduate students and researchers, for self-study, courses, or as a reference text.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book on the theory of three-dimensional spinors and their applications fills an important gap in the literature. It gives an introductory treatment of spinors. From the reviews: "Gathers much of what can be done with 3-D spinors in an easy-to-read, self-contained form designed for applications that will supplement many available spinor treatments. The book? should be appealing to graduate students and researchers in relativity and mathematical physics." -? MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The spinor calculus employed in general relativity is a very useful tool; many expressions and computations are considerably simplified if one makes use of spinors instead of tensors. Some advantages of the spinor formalism applied in the four-dimensional space-time of general relativity come from the fact that each spinor index takes two values only, which simplifies the algebraic manipulations. Spinors for spaces of any dimension can be defined in connection with rep resentations of orthogonal groups and in the case of spaces of dimension three, the spinor indices also take two values only, which allows us to apply some of the results found in the two-component spinor formalism of four-dimensional space-time. The spinor formalism for three-dimensional spaces has been partially developed, mainly for spaces with a definite metric, also in connection with gen eral relativity (e.g., in space-plus-time decompositions of space-time), defining the spinors of three-dimensional space from those corresponding to four-dimensional space-time, but the spinor formalism for three-dimensional spaces considered on their own is not widely known or employed. One of the aims of this book is to give an account of the spinor formalism for three-dimensional spaces, with definite or indefinite metric, and its applications in physics and differential geometry. Another is to give an elementary treatment of the spin-weighted functions and their various applications in mathematical physics. This book on the theory of three-dimensional spinors and their applications fills an important gap in the literature.
