On the Absoluteness of Rotation

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2023-06-14 v1

Abstract

We argue that in the general relativistic calculation of planetary orbits, the choice of a reference frame which is an obligatory condition in the Newtonian approach is replaced by an appropriate boundary condition on the solution of Einstein equation. Implications of this observation on the nature of rotation and the physical interpretation of the metric tensor are discussed.
