MIT 8.962 General Relativity, Spring 2020 Instructor: Scott Hughes View the complete course: https://ocw.mit.edu/8-962S20 YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUl4u3cNGP629n_3fX7HmKKgin_rqGzbx Discussion of a second notion of transport, 'Lie' transport, and the associated Lie derivative. Use of this derivative to discuss spacetime symmetries, as encapsulated by Killing vectors. Also discusses 'tensor densities,' volume elements in general spacetimes, and certain tricks and identities that use the determinant of the spacetime metric.
