So far we have looked at the special theory of relativity, but today we will expand our understanding to incorporate gravity. . Chapter 1. . . Modern physics is the study of the two great revolutions in physics - relativity and quantum mechanics. . Galilean Relativity. . . All inertial reference frames are equivalent! Another way of stating this principle is that . Albert Einstein. A portion of Einstein’s fame came when he formulated Special Relativity.. He came up with this theory by simply performing thought experiments. He wondered what would happen if you travelled at the speed of light. He started with the most basic principles of physics and worked up from there…. Spacetime and Gravity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_relativity_resources. . S3.1 Einstein’s Revolution.

This book opens by setting the mathematical background (differential geometry, hypersurfaces embedded in spacetime, foliation of spacetime by a family of space-like hypersurfaces), and then turns to the 3+1 decomposition of the Einstein equations.
