The Mathematical Theory of Cosmic Strings : Cosmic Strings in the Wire Approximation.

A survey of the state of knowledge about the dynamics and gravitational properties of cosmic strings treated in the idealized classical approximation as line singularities described by the Nambu-Goto action. A working knowledge of basic general relativity is assumed.
