Newtonian Origin of General Relativity

Authors: Salim Georges Khoury

This paper shows that there exists in “Classical Newtonian Mechanics” a relationship between the curvature of space and the density of energy similar to that of “General Relativity”. It is as if the General Theory of Relativity has replaced, in this relationship of Newtonian Mechanics, the scalar quantities (space curvature and Energy density) by their equivalent tensors. From this point of view, the Theory of General Relativity can be considered as an extension of Newton's classical mechanics, an extension from Euclidean flat space-time to curved space-time of Riemann
