Several examples of deterministic force satisfying the necessary conditions for a unique invariant measure to exist are given. The support of the measure is examined and given explicitly for several cases.展开更多

That is to say, we show how arguments concerning the plausible conceptual compatibility of Newtonian and general-relativistic models of gravity can be replaced by a demonstration of their actual formal identity. More specifically, we find that both the classical Newtonian and the general relativistic field equations are equivalent to a velocity-field divergence equation of the form v [div (v)] + div (v,v) = -4πρ where the term div (v,v) is defined to be the trace of the square of the Jacobian derivative matrix of v (or of its general-relativistic analogue).展开更多
