Novikov is a mathematics book and learning resource focused on Deep Sky \u0026amp; Solar System. Best for teachers, students, and readers looking for stronger mathematical understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduces the physics of black holes and the methods employed in it, and reviews the main results of this branch of physics. Frolov (physics, U. of Alberta) and Novikov (theoretical astrophysics, U. of Copenhagen) focus on questions that have been answered relatively recently. Among the topics treated are: space-time of stationary black holes, general theory of black holes, black hole perturbations, numerics, electrodynamics, black holes in unified theories of gravity, quantum black holes, final states of evaporating black holes, and the information loss puzzle. Special attention is paid to the role of black holes in astrophysics and observational evidence of black hole existence. Many exotic subjects linked with black holes, such as white holes, wormholes, and time machines, are discussed. Appendices cover mathematical aspects of general relativity and black holes and quantum field theory in curved spacetime.
