Abstract

Background in General Relativity (e.g. black holes, wormholes, or spacetime models in general) is needed to comprehend more recent efforts around understanding quantum phenomena like entanglement (e.g. >>It from qubit<< as well as >>ER = EPR<<). The former in turn requires a lot of knowledge from differential topology and differential geometry. While this knowledge is available in very good mathematics textbooks, it is scattered i.e. quite a bunch of sources need to be consulted to acquire it. The goal of this contribution is to provide the major background in a single place; in this sense, this contribution is some sort of guided tour through the corresponding literature.
