Farewell to General Relativity

Abstract

The kinematical successes of general relativity are legendary: the perihelion precession, the gravitational red-shift, the bending of light. However, at the level of dynamics, relativity is faced with insurmountable difficulties. It has failed to define the energy, momentum, and stress of the gravitational field. Moreover, it offers no expression of energy-momentum transfer to or from the gravitational field. These are symptoms of a far graver malady: general relativity violates the principle of energy conservation.
