This thesis presents the state of the art in the study of Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) symmetry and its applications in the simplified setting of three dimensions. It focuses on presenting all the background material in a pedagogical and self-contained manner to enable readers to fully appreciate the original results that have been obtained while learning a number of fundamental concepts in the field along the way. This makes it a highly rewarding read and a perfect starting point for anybody with a serious interest in the four-dimensional problem.

Panenka's pearl of a penalty in Belgrade, van Basten's volley of a lifetime in Munich, Gazza's agonising near-miss at Wembley: over its six decades, the UEFA European Championship has thrown up many of the most memorable stories in football lore. Now it gets the history it deserves. Euro Summits is the first full retelling of the tournament, from its tentative beginnings in the late 1950s to its elephantine expansion in the mid-2010s. Taking in the USSR's early success, the grim violence of 1968, France's cavalier feats on home soil in 1984, the sensational triumphs of no-hopers Denmark and Greece, Spain's modern-day dominance, all the way up to Portugal's shock victory in 2016, it's a panoramic portrait of an event that captures a whole continent's imagination every four years. Dramatic, detailed and teeming with compelling personalities like Michel Platini, Guenter Netzer, Hristo Stoichkov, Zinedine Zidane, Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo, this is the complete story of a footballing event second only to the World Cup.
“Além de ter marcado 333 gols, vivi momentos de alegria praticamente impossíveis de serem descritos. Trafeguei por caminhos que fizeram sentido muitos anos depois. Derrotas que antecipam vitórias. Sofrimentos que nos ensinam a beleza de vencer. ZICO “Como a maioria dos pernas-de-pau, tornei-me torcedor. Depois que me mudei para o Rio, fui algumas vezes ao Maracanã torcer pelo Vasco. O estádio me fascinou, sobretudo porque por ali passaram os grandes heróis que situaram o Brasil no topo da hierarquia mundial.” FERREIRA GULLAR
