Methods and Technics for General Relativity
Many different fields contribute to the study of General Relativity. This variety of contributions leads to a vast richness of results, but also sometimes to a problem of understanding between people coming from different backgrounds. This course intends to bridge the conceptual differences between the fields by introducing different methods and techniques used in these fields. These include spinor formalism, Newman-Penrose formalism, asymptotic flatness, Penrose diagrams, Weyl tensor, and others.

讲师介绍
Alejandro Torres-Orjuela obtained his Physics Bachelor's degree from the Free University of Berlin and his Physics Master's degree, as well as his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Mathematics from the Technical University of Berlin. Later, he moved to China to do his Ph.D. at Peking University, where he worked with Prof. Xian Chen and Prof. Pau Amaro Seoane from 2017 to 2021. After his Ph.D., Alejandro moved to the TianQin Center at Sun Yat-Sen University, where he worked for two years as a PostDoc in the Theoretical Study group led by Prof. Jianwei Mei. In 2023, Alejandro took a position as a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of Hong Kong, as a member of Prof. Jane Dai's group. Since November 2024, Alejandro has been an Assistant Professor in BIMSA. In his work, Alejandro studies different aspects of gravitational wave astronomy with a particular focus on the effect of the environment on gravitational wave detection. His research further includes gravitational wave sources with electromagnetic counterparts, extreme mass ratio systems, and multiband detection across the spectrum, with a particular focus on space-based detectors TianQin and LISA.
