The Schwarzschild Metric is not a Valid Metric [?] and the Einstein Equations Are not Lorentz Invariant [?]

Authors: Jorma Jormakka

The Schwarzschild metric is not a valid metric. Additionally, it does not make the local speed of light equal to c to all directions. It follows that all physical experiments which claim to verify the General Relativity theory by using the Schwarzschild solution as a substantial part of the argument are invalid as verifications of the theory. These include the Pound-Rebka experiment, precession of the perihelion of Mercury, clock dilatation in GPS satellites, Shapiro delay, black holes and bending of light in a gravitational field. Alternative explanations that do not use the the Schwarzschild metric exist [3][6]{19]. By selecting a valid metric that agrees with the Schwarzschild metric on the $x$-axis the article proves that the Einstein equations are not Lorentz invariant. This fact makes the requirement that equations of motion should be Lorentz invariant irrelevant.
