  2. Derivation of the Schwarzschild solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivation_of_the...

    This is unfounded because that law has relativistic corrections. For example, the meaning of "r" is physical distance in that classical law, and merely a coordinate in General Relativity.] The Schwarzschild metric can also be derived using the known physics for a circular orbit and a temporarily stationary point mass. [1]

  3. Isotropic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotropic_coordinates

    In an isotropic chart (on a static spherically symmetric spacetime), the metric (aka line element) takes the form = + (+ (+ ⁡ ())), < <, < <, < <, < < Depending on context, it may be appropriate to regard , as undetermined functions of the radial coordinate (for example, in deriving an exact static spherically symmetric solution of the Einstein field equation).

  4. Solving the geodesic equations - Wikipedia

    This often yields a result giving a family of solutions implicitly, but in many examples does yield the general solution in explicit form. In general relativity, to obtain timelike geodesics it is often simplest to start from the spacetime metric , after dividing by d s 2 {\displaystyle ds^{2}} to obtain the form

  5. Schwarzschild metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_metric

    The Schwarzschild solution, taken to be valid for all r > 0, is called a Schwarzschild black hole. It is a perfectly valid solution of the Einstein field equations, although (like other black holes) it has rather bizarre properties. For r < r s the Schwarzschild radial coordinate r becomes timelike and the time coordinate t becomes spacelike. [22]

  6. Kretschmann scalar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kretschmann_scalar

    The Kretschmann scalar and the Chern-Pontryagin scalar. where is the left dual of the Riemann tensor, are mathematically analogous (to some extent, physically analogous) to the familiar invariants of the electromagnetic field tensor

    Deutsch: Dieses Dokument listet 20323 Symbole und die dazugehörigen LaTeX-Befehle auf. Manche Symbole sind in jedem LaTeX-2ε-System verfügbar; andere benötigen zusätzliche Schriftarten oder Pakete, die nicht notwendig in jeder Distribution mitgeliefert werden und daher selbst installiert werden müssen.

  8. Levi-Civita connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levi-Civita_connection

    The Levi-Civita connection (like any affine connection) also defines a derivative along curves, sometimes denoted by D. Given a smooth curve γ on (M, g) and a vector field V along γ its derivative is defined by = ˙ (). Formally, D is the pullback connection γ*∇ on the pullback bundle γ*TM.

  9. Killing vector field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_vector_field

    A toy example for a Killing vector field is on the upper half-plane = > equipped with the Poincaré metric ⁠ = (+) ⁠. The pair ( M , g ) {\displaystyle (M,g)} is typically called the hyperbolic plane and has Killing vector field ∂ x {\displaystyle \partial _{x}} (using standard coordinates).
