Description

This concise book reviews methods used for gluing space-time manifolds together.

It is therefore relevant to theorists working on branes, walls, domain walls, concepts frequently used in theoretical cosmology, astrophysics, and gravity theory.

Nowadays, applications are also in theoretical condensed matter physics where Riemannian geometry appears.

The book also reviews the history of matching conditions between two space-time manifolds from the early times of general relativity up to now.
