Geometry of warped products

Differential Geometry 2011-07-05 v1

Abstract

This is a survey on the geometry of warped products, without, or essentially with only soft, calculation. Somewhere in the paper, the goal was to give a synthetic account since existing approaches are rather analytic. Somewhere else, we have interpreted statements, especially by means of a physical terminology. This is essentially heuristic, but we think it might be helpful in both directions, that is, in going from a synthetic geometrical language to a relativistic one, and vice-versa.
