Equivalence principle, gravitational collapse, and the classical particle problem
H - H von Borzeszkowski and W Yourgrau
Show affiliationsThe authors compare various modifications of general relativity theory (GRT) from the viewpoint of the equivalence principle. In GRT, gravitational collapse and the classical particle problem are closely connected with Einstein's version of the strong principle of equivalence. It is argued that theories which violate that principle or start from its 'telescopic' formulation might avoid collapse. On the other hand, one should invoke Einstein's equations with fourth-order corrections in order to solve the classical particle problem.
