Title / titre: The Mathematics of Black Hole Mechanics

Abstract / résumé: In an effort to understand black hole mechanics, we will first examine basic concepts of special relativity, working upto the Schwartzchild metric. From this, we will discuss the Schwartzchild radius of generic black holes and then the more exotic subject matter, such as singularities and white holes.

Prerequisites / choses nécessaires: A 20-minute attention span. (I'll leave most of the tensor calc out.)
