Lecture Notes on General Relativity
(Submitted on 3 Dec 1997)
Abstract: These notes represent approximately one semester's worth of lectures on introductory general relativity for beginning graduate students in physics. Topics include manifolds, Riemannian geometry, Einstein's equations, and three applications: gravitational radiation, black holes, and cosmology.
