These theorems provide the answer to a long standing problem that has been proved remarkably difficult to solve. They constitute one of the major results in classical General Relativity and they uncover a deep self-consistence of the theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-03-30T20:27:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "general relativity", "positive energy theorems", "relevant results concerning positivity energy", "results concerning positivity energy theorems", "long standing problem" ], "tags": [ "book chapter" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1007/978-3-642-41992-8_18" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1219317, "adsabs": "2014shst.book..363D" } } }
