Generalizing General Relativity
2021In this chapter we review 5 popular models of modifying and/or generalizing our current understanding of spacetime. These are: Brans-Dicke theory, f(R) theory, Gauss-Bonnet theory, Kaluza-Klein theory, and finally Cartan’s theory of gravity.

The Beauty of General Relativity
Foundations of Science, 1997The author proposes to add another dichotomy to the list of essential tensions proposed by Professor Duda, namely beauty and ugliness. Physicists believe that only beautiful theories describe the world correctly, and that General Relativity is one of the most beautiful physical theories.

General Relativity: An Introduction for Physicists provides a clear mathematical introduction to Einstein's theory of general relativity. It presents a wide range of applications of the theory, concentrating on its physical consequences. After reviewing the basic concepts, the authors present a clear and intuitive discussion of the mathematical ...

Special relativity in general relativity?
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1974Starting from the metric in harmonic coordinates for a test particle m1 around a heavy particle m2(m2≫m1) at rest, the EIH Lagrangian is recovered by making a Lorentz transformation, followed by a canonical transformation and an appropriate symmetrization in the two masses. This raises the question of a special relativity content in general relativity,

The mechanics of general relativity
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1959It is shown how to obtain, within the general theory of relativity, equations of motion for two oscillating masses at the ends of a spring of given law of force. The method of Einstein, Infeld & Hoffmann is used, and the force in the spring is represented by a stress singularity. The detailed calculations are taken to the Newtonian order.
