Die Grundlage der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie
Open accessAbstract
Der speziellen Relativitätstheorie liegt folgendes Postulat zugrunde, welchem auch durch die Galilei-Newtonsche Mechanik Genüge geleistet wird: Wird ein Koordinatensystem K so gewählt, daß in bezug auf dasselbe die physikalischen Gesetze in ihrer einfachsten Form gelten, so gelten dieselben Gesetze auch in Bezug auf jedes andere Koordinatensystem K′, das relativ zu K in gleichförmiger Translationsbewegung begriffen ist. Dieses Postulat nennen wir „spezielles Relativitätsprinzip“. Durch das Wort „speziell” soll angedeutet werden, daß das Prinzip auf den Fall beschränkt ist, daß K′ eine gleichförmige Translationsbewegung gegen Kausführt, daß sich aber die Gleichwertigkeit von K′ und K nicht auf den Fall ungleichförmiger Bewegung von K′ gegen K erstreckt.

Energy conservation is non-trivial in general relativity because curved spacetime can become time-dependent.
“Thus the energy conservation is non-trivial in general relativity[11], since the curved spacetime can become time-dependent.”
From Is energy conserved in general relativity? (2025) · cites this paper as [11]
In §15 and §17 (page unavailable), Einstein treats energy conservation as requiring an account of both matter and the gravitational field; §15 also notes that the gravitational-field energy components do not form a tensor. The discussion of the metric describes its components as functions of space and time, but the paper does not explicitly give time-dependent curved spacetime as the reason energy conservation is non-trivial.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
