Ricci decomposition — In semi Riemannian geometry, the Ricci decomposition is a way of breaking up the Riemann curvature tensor of a pseudo Riemannian manifold into pieces with useful individual algebraic properties. This decomposition is of fundamental importance in… … Wikipedia
Curvature invariant (general relativity) — Curvature invariants in general relativity are a set of scalars called curvature invariants that arise in general relativity. They are formed from the Riemann, Weyl and Ricci tensors which represent curvature and possibly operations on them such… … Wikipedia

Congruence (general relativity) — In general relativity, a congruence (more properly, a congruence of curves) is the set of integral curves of a (nowhere vanishing) vector field in a four dimensional Lorentzian manifold which is interpreted physically as a model of spacetime.… … Wikipedia
Golden age of general relativity — The Golden Age of General Relativity is the period roughly from 1960 to 1975 during which the study of general relativity, which had previously been regarded as something of a curiosity, entered the mainstream of theoretical physics. During this… … Wikipedia

Schwarzschild coordinates — In the theory of Lorentzian manifolds, spherically symmetric spacetimes admit a family of nested round spheres . In such a spacetime, a particularly important kind of coordinate chart is the Schwarzschild chart, a kind of polar spherical… … Wikipedia
Gödel metric — The Gödel metric is an exact solution of the Einstein field equations in which the stress energy tensor contains two terms, the first representing the matter density of a homogeneous distribution of swirling dust particles, and the second… … Wikipedia
