The Wave Equation on a Curved Space–Time
Open accessAbstract
F G Friedlander London: Cambridge University Press 1976 pp ix + 282 price £15 The continuing interest in general relativity has created the need for a book on the rigorous mathematical theory of wave propagation in curved space–time, both for treatment of classical radiation and as a basis for the more recent developments in the subject of quantum fields on a manifold. This book meets that demand by treating in the language of modern differential geometry and the theory of distributions some of the pioneering work on wave propagation due to Hadamard and Riesz.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
