Last time, we explored the ideas of spacetime and curvature. This time we’ll look at some special spacetimes: the maximally symmetric spacetimes. Isometries One important class of solutions to the Einstein equations is the maximally symmetric solutions - that is the solutions that in some sense have the most symmetry....
