A slightly extended version, with a footnote added on December 19, 1997, of a contributed Abstract to the Eight Marcel Grossmann Meeting, Jerusalem, June 1997.
We report on selected oral contributions to the A2 session "Mathematical relativity and other progress in classical gravity theory" of "The 20th International Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation (GR20)" in Warsaw.
Revised version to be published in the Proceedings of the Encuentros Relativistas Espa\~noles, September, 2000 [ http://hades.eis.uva.es/EREs2000 ]
We delineate the role of rotation and spin in physics, discussing in order Newtonian classical physics, special relativity, quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics and general relativity. In the latter case, we discuss the generalization…
This is a Reply to the Comment [arXiv:0807.0699] on our paper [PRL 100:232002 (2008)].
This article--summarizing the authors' then novel formulation of General Relativity--appeared as Chapter 7 of an often cited compendium edited by L. Witten in 1962, which is now long out of print. Intentionally unretouched, this posting is…

This is a comment on Chen et al Letter PRL,100, 232002 (2008).
The contributions to the Spin Physics WG are summarized. Several new experimental results and plans for new measurements have been reported. An improved theoretical understanding of the most recent hot topics in spin physics has been…
This is a broad-brush introduction to the theory of spin in quantum field theory, presented at the 1993 SLAC Summer Institute. It may be useful for beginning students.

As a sequel to (Berman, 2008a), we show that the rotation of the Universe can be dealt by generalised Gaussian metrics, defined in this paper. Robertson-Walker's metric has been employed with proper-time, in its standard applications; the…

A formula for the apparent rotation of a relativistically moving object has been known for some time, but it seems not to have been realized that this formula has a very pretty interpretation in terms of formal group laws. Version 2…
