Many of the technical complications associated with the general theory of relativity ultimately stem from the nonlinearity of Einstein's equation. It is shown here that an appropriate choice of dynamical variables may be used to eliminate…
It is assumed that the Lienard-Wiechert fields of an arbitrary moving charge is measured or predefined as a function of time. The position of the charge is calculated as a function of the retarded time.
In a recent paper (Phys. Rev. D78, 084031 (2008), arXiv:0808.0642, Ref. [1]) it was shown in examples that the covariant retarded Green's functions in particular gauges for electromagnetism and linearized gravity can be used to reproduce…

From modern observations of gravitational interactions, it can be inferred that there is much left to discover about the fundamental gravitational field. Since the advent of the General Theory of Relativity over a century ago, we have come…
Analysis of the original Feynman's formula for a moving point charge leads to the notion of a retarded time, which has to be treated as a field. The Lorentzian frame, the trajectory, and the retarded time field uniquely determine a system…
