This book presents recent research from around the world in gravitational physics and the theory of spacetime. The book's 12 chapters explore areas such as exotic solutions in general relativity, nonlinear perturbations and conservation laws on curved backgrounds in general relativity, the Euclidean path integral in quantum gravity, and conditions for stimulated emissions in anomalous gravity-superconductor interactions. Other subjects discussed include topological origins of the coupling constants hierarchy, semiclassical dynamics of black holes, black hole evaporation as a nonequilibrium process, and the dynamics of anisotropic universes. Information on the editors is not given.
