Einstein field equations



The Einstein field equations (EFE) are a set of ten equations in Einstein's theory of general relativity in which the fundamental force of gravitation is described as a curved spacetime caused by matter and energy. The EFE were first published in 1915, and are sometimes called Einstein's equation or Einstein's equations because of their appearance.
