Einstein field equation

English +s Alternative forms en EFE initialism Noun en relativity A symmetric 4 × 4 tensor equation in general relativity in which the gravitational force is described as a curvature of spacetime caused by matter and energy. en The Einstein field equation states that the energy-momentum tensor is directly proportional to the Ricci tensor minus half of the Ricci scalar times the metric tensor plus the cosmological constant times the metric tensor. Usage notes A set of ten scalar equations equivalent to the tensor equation is referred as Einstein field equations.
