§10.5 Spacetime and causal structure (pp. 250–289)

146 items (Definitions 330–475), building the entire causal and topological apparatus the axioms are indexed on. The trips underlying the chronological and causal relations \(\ll\) and \(\prec\) are genuine geodesics of the Levi-Civita connection of the metric, which the section constructs for an arbitrary pseudo-Riemannian metric on top of Mathlib’s covariant derivatives. It proceeds in nine layers.
