  2. Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal–Szekeres_coordinates

    In general relativity, Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates, named after Martin Kruskal and George Szekeres, are a coordinate system for the Schwarzschild geometry for a black hole. These coordinates have the advantage that they cover the entire spacetime manifold of the maximally extended Schwarzschild solution and are well-behaved everywhere ...

  3. Eddington–Finkelstein coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddington–Finkelstein...

    The metric in Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates covers all of the extended Schwarzschild spacetime in a single coordinate system. Its chief disadvantage is that in those coordinates the metric depends on both the time and space coordinates.

  4. Schwarzschild coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_coordinates

    Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates, a chart covering the entire spacetime manifold of the maximally extended Schwarzschild solution and are well-behaved everywhere outside the physical singularity, Eddington–Finkelstein coordinates , an alternative chart for static spherically symmetric spacetimes,

  5. Gullstrand–Painlevé coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gullstrand–Painlevé...

    Gullstrand–Painlevé coordinates are a particular set of coordinates for the Schwarzschild metric – a solution to the Einstein field equations which describes a black hole. The ingoing coordinates are such that the time coordinate follows the proper time of a free-falling observer who starts from far away at zero velocity, and the spatial ...

  7. Penrose diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_diagram

    Penrose diagram of an infinite Minkowski universe, horizontal axis u, vertical axis v. In theoretical physics, a Penrose diagram (named after mathematical physicist Roger Penrose) is a two-dimensional diagram capturing the causal relations between different points in spacetime through a conformal treatment of infinity.

  8. Coordinate-free - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate-free

    Fields that are now often introduced with coordinate-free treatments include vector calculus, tensors, differential geometry, and computer graphics. [2] In physics, the existence of coordinate-free treatments of physical theories is a corollary of the principle of general covariance.

  9. Kruskal's tree theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal's_tree_theorem

    The version given here is that proven by Nash-Williams; Kruskal's formulation is somewhat stronger. All trees we consider are finite. Given a tree T with a root, and given vertices v, w, call w a successor of v if the unique path from the root to w contains v, and call w an immediate successor of v if additionally the path from v to w contains no other vertex.
