    Prove Weak Field Metric Homework Statement

    Alright, thanks for the help kdv - I've gone through with correct indices and reduced the problem to showing spatial derivatives dominate time derivatives...why would this be true?

    Prove Weak Field Metric Homework Statement

    Sorry, yes, that is what I meant. I may have skipped a step - I noticed the only non-zero elements in g_{ab} and g^{ab} are those on the diagonal, so I let l=\alpha. That put a few more alphas in on the right. Sorry, another typo...that should be (-1+\epsilon h_{00}+O(\epsilon^2))_{ ...

    Prove Weak Field Metric Homework Statement

    Homework Statement For the weak field metric g_{00}=-1+\epsilon h_{00}+O(\epsilon^2) g_{\alpha\beta}=\delta_{\alpha\beta}+\epsilon h_{\alpha\beta}+O(\epsilon^2) Prove R_{00}=-\frac{1}{2}\epsilon\frac{\partial^2h_{00}}{\partial x^\alpha\partial x^\beta}+O(\epsilon^2) Homework Equations The hint...
