Talk:Mathematics of general relativity

message: This entire article is disaster. I'll confine myself to one item. In the section "Energy-Momentum Tensor", there are two gigantic errors. One, the "rule of thumb" only works in one direction - when going to flat space, you can replace covariant by ordinary derivatives. It most certainly does not work in the other direction. In particular, if we have a flat space conservation law Tmn,n = 0, we certainly do not necessarily have Tmn;n = 0 for the covariant derivative. If we impose such an equation by force, then it absolutely does not represent a conservation law for *any* symmetric tensor whatsoever. Only totally antisymmetric tensors lead to conservation laws via covariant divergence. On a test, such a blunder would be marked wrong, and so wrong that no partial credit would be awarded. In order to have a local conservation law in any connected manifold, you still need ordinary derivatives to convert an integral over a domain into an equivalent integral over the boundary. This is not even physics, it is basic tensor analysis.
It is ESSENTIAL that Wikipedia get a grip on the editors of these fundamental articles. They are almost uniformly terrible, as they are written by mediocre grad students who likely will never have an original idea. It is a terrible shame to have these people vandalizing these articles with what amounts to scientific graffiti.

message: I am grateful for the degree of expertise and precision reflected in this article, but it badly needs a simple, lay person's explanation in addition to the precise mathematical definition.  It should give the reader some idea of why it exists, what it's used for, what problem it addresses, so the read can get some intuitive sense of what it is all about.  Can anyone help add this please?  Thanks.  -- DBooth 17:20, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't understand the "uses of ..." part. Anyway, Skolemization is used in the process of converting any FOPL formula to clausal normal form, which is required in order to use resolution by refutation (a process that can be automated) to prove a provable theorem.

message: The Axiom of Choice is used to guarantee the existence of a Skolem function. Is it really necessary? I am new to the subject but suspicious because the Axiom of Choice seems to bust the borders of simple logical replacement algorithms since its validity is commonly due to the assumption of something as complicated as sets.
If it is needed, we should explicitly note that we need the Axiom of Choice to guarantee equisatisfiability. Otherwise, we should not use the axiom. Mathelerner (talk) 21:32, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

- Serbia IS NOT free and democratic country, it's Government is influenced by Chetniks.

message: The orphan tag on this page was removed, because the article itself links to many other articles. I believe this constitutes a wrong interpretation of what the orphan tag means. The orphan tag refers to the number of other articles which contain a link to this article: since there are only two other articles which contain a link to this article (try 'What links here' in the toolbox on the left) I believe the orphan tag is justified. Someone more experienced than me (I am relatively new to wikipedia) pls advise. Francesco Malipiero (talk) 21:53, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: You're correct about the interpretation of the orphan tag.  Also, there's only one other real article, not two, that links to this article.  However, I don't think that the uses of the orphan tag is justified here, because this is one of those articles that is a spin-off from another article (a "daughter article", if you like).  If it was merged (back) into Giuseppe Verdi it would lengthen and unbalance that article.  The orphan tag is for articles which could be linked from more articles - but what other articles could this one be linked from? You could put a "See also" header and a link here into all the articles devoted to Verdi's compositions, but what's the point of that?  There are lots of these spin-off aticles with only one link, for example, List of operas by Auber but there's no reason to tag them as orphans.  Hope this helps. --GuillaumeTell 10:51, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
