Difference between Covariant derivative and Exact solutions in general relativity

Covariant derivative vs. Exact solutions in general relativity

In mathematics, the covariant derivative is a way of specifying a derivative along tangent vectors of a manifold. In general relativity, an exact solution is a Lorentzian manifold equipped with tensor fields modeling states of ordinary matter, such as a fluid, or classical nongravitational fields such as the electromagnetic field.

Similarities between Covariant derivative and Exact solutions in general relativity

Covariant derivative and Exact solutions in general relativity have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): General relativity, Pseudo-Riemannian manifold, Riemann curvature tensor, Tensor.

General relativity

General relativity (GR, also known as the general theory of relativity or GTR) is the geometric theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in 1915 and the current description of gravitation in modern physics.

Pseudo-Riemannian manifold

In differential geometry, a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (also called a semi-Riemannian manifold) is a generalization of a Riemannian manifold in which the metric tensor need not be positive-definite, but need only be a non-degenerate bilinear form, which is a weaker condition.

Riemann curvature tensor

In the mathematical field of differential geometry, the Riemann curvature tensor or Riemann–Christoffel tensor (after Bernhard Riemann and Elwin Bruno Christoffel) is the most common method used to express the curvature of Riemannian manifolds.
