Time (in)dependence in general relativity
S. Deser, J. Franklin
We clarify the conditions for Birkhoff's theorem, that is, time-independence in general relativity. We work primarily at the linearized level where guidance from electrodynamics is…

Schwarzschild and Birkhoff a la Weyl
S. Deser, J. Franklin
We provide a simple derivation of the Schwarzschild solution in General Relativity, generalizing an early approach by Weyl, to include Birkhoff's theorem: constancy of the mass; it…

Shortcuts to Spherically Symmetric Solutions: A Cautionary Note
S. Deser, J. Franklin, B. Tekin
Spherically symmetric solutions of generic gravitational models are optimally, and legitimately, obtained by expressing the action in terms of the two surviving metric components.…
