Direct correspondence between Newtonian gravitation and general relativity
PHYSICAL REVIEW D(2023)
Abstract
We present a strategy to obtain equations of general relativity for an irrotational dust continuum within a flow-orthogonal foliation of spacetime from the equations of Newtonian gravitation, and vice versa, without employing a weak field expansion or a limiting process on the speed of light. We argue that writing Newton's equations in a Lagrangian frame and relaxing integrability of vector gradients is sufficient to obtain equations that are identical to Einstein's equations in (3 + 1)-form when respecting the Lorentzian signature of the time parametrization. We discuss implications and provide an outlook on how to extend the obtained correspondence to more general spacetimes.
