Linearized gravity in terms of differential forms
arXiv:1612.05510 · doi:10.1140/epjp/i2017-11345-8
Abstract
A technique to linearize gravitational field equations is developed in which the perturbation metric coefficients are treated as second rank, symmetric, 1-form fields belonging to the Minkowski background spacetime by using the exterior algebra of differential forms.
