The lattice gauge theory (LGT) for curved spacetime is formulated. A discretized action is derived for both gluon and quark fields which reduces to the generally covariant form in the continuum limit. Using the Wilson action, it is shown analytically that for a general curved spacetime background, two propagating gluons are always color-confined. The fermion-doubling problem is discussed in the specific case of Friedman–Robertson–Walker (FRW) metric. Last, we discussed possible future numerical implementation of lattice QCD in curved spacetime.

We discuss mechanics in curved spacetime backgrounds, gravitational time dilation, the motion of free particles, geodesics. We use the Schwarzschild metric as a case study and solve for motion along radial and orbital geodesics. This includes the strange behaviour around the event horizons of a Schwarzschild black hole. Isometries and Killing vector fields are explained and applied. Finally a brief presentation of generally covariant electrodynamics is given.

After a review of conformal symmetry, this chapter covers the quantisation of fields in curved space-times. It is shown that field operators defined with respect to different vacua are related by a Bogolyubov transformation and that the mixing of positive and negative frequencies determines the amount of particle production. The Unruh effect is explained and it is shown that in a space-time with an event horizon, a thermal spectrum of particles is created close to the horizon.
