Schwarzschild and Kerr Solutions of Einstein's Field Equation -- an introduction

Christian Heinicke, Friedrich W. Hehl, .

Starting from Newton's gravitational theory, we give a general introduction into the spherically symmetric solution of Einstein's vacuum field equation, the Schwarzschild(-Droste)…

Einstein-aether theory, violation of Lorentz invariance, and metric-affine gravity

Christian Heinicke, Peter Baekler, Friedrich W. Hehl

We show that the Einstein-aether theory of Jacobson and Mattingly (J&M) can be understood in the framework of the metric-affine (gauge theory of) gravity (MAG). We achieve this by…

The Cotton tensor in Riemannian spacetimes

A. Garcia, F. W. Hehl, C. Heinicke +1

Recently, the study of three-dimensional spaces is becoming of great interest. In these dimensions the Cotton tensor is prominent as the substitute for the Weyl tensor. It is confo…
