Geometry and Quantum Features of Special Relativity

This second edition of "The Geometry of Special Relativity - a Concise Course" offers more than just corrections and enhancements. It includes a new chapter on four-velocities and boosts as points and straight lines of hyperbolic geometry. Quantum properties of relativistic particles are derived from the unitary representations of the Poincaré group. Notably, the massless representation is related...
