Computer-aided classification of exact solutions in general relativity

  • 1. Theoretical Astronomy Unit, School of Mathematical Sciences, Queen Mary College, Mile End Road, London E1 4NS

Description

The theory and practical implementation of the procedure for providing a unique local invariant characterisation of a spacetime is discussed. This enables one to study whether two solutions of Einstein's field equations locally describe the same spacetime
