The Group of Large Diffeomorphisms in General Relativity

arXiv:gr-qc/9510022

Abstract

We investigate the group of large diffeomorphisms fixing a frame at a point for general closed 3-manifolds. We derive some general structural properties of these groups which relate to the picture of the manifold as being composed of extended `objects' (geons).
