NSF 2.0: A spin weight zero formulation of General Relativity

Bordcoch, Melina, Kozameh, Carlos, Rojas, Alejandra

Understand

We present a set of three PDEs for three real scalars that are equivalent to the full Einstein equations without any symmetry assumptions.

  • The main variables in this formulation are null surfaces and a conformal factor.
  • Furthermore, for asymptotically flat spacetimes the free data (representing gravitational radiation) enters as the source term in the resulting equations.
  • This could be important for an asymptotic quantization procedure.
