Applications of embedding theory in higher dimensional general relativity.

The study of embeddings is applicable and signicant to higher dimensional theories of our universe, high-energy physics and classical general relativity. In this thesis we investigate local and global isometric embeddings of four-dimensional spherically symmetric spacetimes into five-dimensional...
