Description

This lecture covers the introduction of Christoffel symbols, covariant derivatives, and parallel transport related to gravity before Einstein. It discusses the mathematical sense of tensors, symmetries, and the Nobel Prize in Physics awarded in 2020. The instructor explains the expression of Christoffel symbols via coordinate transformations and the significance of the gravitational field in arbitrary coordinates.
