Initial value formulation of Newtonian gravity
Year: 2004
Type: preprint
Abstract: We show that there exists a remarkable analogy between the initial value formulation of General Relativity and Newton's gravity theory, which can be recast as an evolution problem for a flat metric in R^3. We identify conditions for solutions of both evolution problems to coincide and present examples, including a Newtonian analogue of the warp drive.
