    A Hartle-Hawking sum over all possible metrics?

    Physicists Stephen W Hawking and James B Hartle 1 proposed that the universe, in its origins, had no boundary conditions both in space and time. To do that, they proposed a sum over all compact euclidean compact metrics. I have heard that they only considered these metrics in order to simplify...

    Relativity Error in Hartle's Fig. 7.11?

    A question concerning FIg. 7.11 on page 173. It seems to me, in light of what is said on the preceding page about null surfaces, that he has interchanged "normal" and "tangent" in the third and fourth sentences of the figure caption. I would say: "The tangent to the surface l lies in the...

    A problem with Integration by Parts in Hartle's "Gravity"

    Hi guys! I am reading the book "Gravity" by Hartle. I came across this scary-looking integral. The author does integration by parts and I don't get how he does it. Could someone guide me please? Relevant equations: ∫u dv = uv - ∫v du

    Where can I find solutions to the problems in Hartle's Gravity: An Introduction?

    I've started learning GR from Hartle's "Gravity: An Introduction ...". It's all going well, but I feel I could benefit from solutions to some of the key problems. I assume Hartle hasn't published a companion solution guide. A few options show up on line. One by Jorge Ramos, for example. Any...

    Hartle too hard Need another suggestion

    It started out OK, like a lot of books, but all of a sudden I hit a mass of integrals at page 22 out of nowhere. No build up, no explanation, many solution steps skipped (of course). Sorry to sound weak, but I need to be "nannied" through the maths of General relativity. I'm a right brain...

    Status of Hawking Hartle no boundary proposal

    I came across this statement from James Hartle on Stephen Hawking's website, http://www.hawking.org.uk/ and wondered where you see this proposal currrently [Hartle sure seems to think it explains an awful lot] : James Hartle: Wikipedia has a brief discussion here...

    Comparing Hartle, Schutz, and Ohanian for GR Beginner

    I'm going to attempt to start a beginner GR book since we're covering it in Modern Physics and I've been covering the material up a notch so far (I did the SR by reading Spacetime Physics by Taylor and Wheeler & I've already read Griffith's for the Qmech section etc.) I don't intend to finish an...

    Supplementary Reading for First GR Course: Schutz vs Hartle?

    I hope this is the right forum to post this... I'm going through Wald's book in my first graduate level GR course, and am looking for lower level supplementary reading. I have a relatively strong math background, so Wald's language suits me well, but sometimes I feel like I need more...

    Hartle Gravity - Simple basis vector question

    Helo all, I have a very simple question about basis Four-Vectors and Components. In Hartle's book, Gravity, he uses the following equation to show the components of the 4-vector, a a =a^t{}e(sub t) + a^x{}e(sub x) + a^y{}e(sub y) + a^z{}e(sub z) Sorry for the half LaTex half something...
