Einstein's hole argument
American Journal of Physics 69:223-225 (2001)
Abstract
In general relativity, a spacetime and a gravitational field form an indivisible unit: no field, no spacetime. This is a lesson of Einstein's hole argument. We use a simple transformation in a Schwartzschild pacetime to illustrate this.
