Computer Algebra Applications for Numerical Relativity

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We discuss the application of computer algebra to problems commonly arising in numerical relativity, such as the derivation of 3+1-splits, manipulation of evolution equations and automatic code generation. Particular emphasis is put on working with abstract index tensor quantities as much as possible.
