Provides and excellent introduction to important themes of current research in differential geometry and theoretical physics. Basis of all contributions are lectures given at a Summer School in Hambrug, 2016. Authors are worldwide renowned researchers in their area.

Klappentext
This book consists of two lecture notes on geometric flow equations (O. Schnürer) and Lorentzian geometry  - holonomy, spinors and Cauchy Problems (H. Baum and T. Leistner) written by leading experts in these fields.  It grew out of the summer school Geometric flows and the geometry of space-time held in  Hamburg (2016) and provides an excellent introduction for students of mathematics and theoretical physics to important themes of current research in global analysis, differential geometry and mathematical physics
