Journal ArticleDOI
Classifying geometries in general relativity: I. Standard forms for symmetric spinors
TL;DR: In this article, the Cartan-Karlhede invariant classification of geometries and the significance of the standard form of a spinor are discussed and algorithms for putting the Weyl spinor, Ricci spinor and general spinors into standard form are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classifying geometries in general relativity: III. Classification in practice
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe how the Cartan-Karlhede method for classifying a geometry is accomplished in practice, and give as an example the classification of the Edgar-Lugwig conformally flat pure radiation metrics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classifying geometries in general relativity: II. Spinor tools
TL;DR: The second in a series of papers concerning a project to set up a database of exact solutions in general relativity which can be accessed and updated by the user community is presented in this paper.
