Description
The Mach-Einstein Principle of 1917-1918
Abstract: In 1917 and 1918 Einstein was working on relativistic cosmology and on promoting and explaining general relativity in correspondence. During this period, the thesis that the spacetime metric should be determined by the distribution of matter played an important role in his thought. I will be concerned with the interpretation of this thesis and with its status in general relativity.
