Hall (U. of Aberdeen) compiles the theoretical aspects of the literature on symmetries in general relativity that have been produced over the past few decades. He is not offering a textbook, he warns, but a study of certain aspects of four-dimensional Lorentzian differential geometry emphasizing the special requirements of Einstein's general theory of relativity. His main goal is to present a mathematical approach to symmetries and to the related topic of the connection and curvature structure of space-time, without paying much attention to attendant problems that worry mathematicians more than physicists.
