Due to the vagueness of this question, I am posting it in the Lounge, but if anyone suggests I clean it up and post it in a more specific forum, I will do so.
I came across a paper which, in itself, has no scientific value, but one passage in it piques my curiosity. The paper presents a couple of spacetime metrics, and then "averages" them. I have no idea whether this makes any sense. If it does, then just adding them and dividing by two end up with a proper metric? Is there a more valid way of averaging two metrics?
