    Thanks a lot. I am doing self study on GR and I was only able to get the first Ricci tensor on my own, but I needed your video to get the other 3. You did a fantastic job of organizing the work. I could not get it without your help. Please keep doing videos that show all the mathematical steps. I greatly appreciate it.

    • @eigenchris
      @eigenchris  2 года назад +4

      To be honest this was one of the easier videos, because all these calculations are well-documented so there wasn't much room for error. Other videos tend to involve a lot of fact-checking or trying to figure out calculations that are harder to track down sources for, which makes their production time balloon. Kind of in that situation right now with 110d. Hope I can work it out soon.

    I don't know if I missed it in last video, but can k depend on time?
    Is it being constant a derived property or a one chosen because we limited the scope to those 3 possible metrics?

    • @ugibugi5305
      @ugibugi5305 2 года назад

      As I understand this is a chosen value +1, 0 or -1 depending on what we assume - it's introduced only so we can write three metric in one.

    • @eigenchris
      @eigenchris  2 года назад +3

      k doesn't depend on time. It just indicates the choice of which geometry we're using (closed, flat, open). The scale factor a(t) obviously depends on time. This more or less plays the role of the "radius" of a closed universe and the equivalent curvature paramter for an open universe.

  • @neopalm2050
    @neopalm2050 2 года назад

    One thing I've noticed is that, while the FLRW metric is spacially homogeneous and isotropic, it DOES differentiate between frames of reference (in that it's possible to know which time axis is the "correct" one). I suppose this isn't too much of an assumption since the CMB is known to have a particular velocity, but it is worth noting I think.

    • @neopalm2050
      @neopalm2050 2 года назад

      Actually, I've changed my mind. It is a somewhat large assumption to assume that at a cosmological scale all points in space will have the same time axis at which they are locally homogeneous and isotropic.

    • @eigenchris
      @eigenchris  2 года назад +3

      @@neopalm2050 Yeah, that's an issue I've basically ignored in the past couple videos. There's such a thing as the "cosmic rest frame", which is the frame in which you don't see any doppler shift when observing the CMB (you see the same frequencies in all direction, instead of seeing blueshift on one half of the sky and redshift on the other half). In the cosmic rest frame, geodesics that point forward in time will remain at fixed spatial coordinates, so basically the FLRW coordinate system is "expanding along with spacetime" (for this reason these are also called "comoving coordinates"). To be honest I'm still working through all the details for the justification for why we can pick the time axis that we do, but my plan is to explain it in the next video.

    A small observation/question for minute 5:21 :
    \Gamma ^{1}_{00}=\dfrac{1}{2}g^{11}\left ( \partial_0 g_{1 0} + \partial_0 g_{10} - \partial_1 g_{00}

      Surely you know Chris. This is the shape of the universe (FLRW Metric Derivation, the fourth option) The volume is of Horn Torus. And the equation GM = tc^3 also can be derived using a simple calculation (see last page in the paper).
      Listen, we are both aware that it requires dedication and a true willingness to delve into the depths of things.
      I can't make you speak about topics you don't want to talk about or appreciate them.
      But I'm sure you'll find the time to look into it. It just floats in a very natural way from relativity.
