Transformation on the minkowsky metric

  • #1
hi,

in my textbook there ist a problem, i cannot solve: let T be a linear bijective map from R^4 to R^4, which preserves the light cone. show: T* ds^2 = (constant)^2 * ds^2, where ds^2 ist the minkowsky metric and T* ist the pullback of the metric.

can someone show how to do it.
