I have studied physics and I didn't find his works were really so great
.
Wow! I'm impressed!
I'm still trying to get thru'

It's all tensor calculus. Nothing really complicated....once you get it, it's all mechanical, a little like derivation...and in the end, what do you do with all these formulas to apply them to cosmology ?...a poor linearization...

A poor linearization?
Perhaps you could explain why ol' Albert decribed his General Theory of Relativity in terms of curved space-time
... or will it cost me to get that explanation? :D

Linearization of equations, not of space-time...
 
Linearization of equations, not of space-time

The field equations of general relativity are a set of nonlinear partial differential equations for the metric.

Although I was originally impressed by your (apparent) knowledge of the various topics in this thread
... now I'm convinced otherwise :mad:

Bye!

nonlinear equations which are then linearized... hey man, wake up !

wow, nothing quite as pitiful as watching two geeks argue.

Not arguing on my side and I don't think gummy really 'argues'. Just putting things smooth...or linear... :D
