Abstract: | The Newtonian limit of general relativity was Jürgen Ehlers favourite model for limit relations between theories of physics.
In this contribution, for the case of isolated systems, the Newtonian limit of general relativity will be illuminated from
a canonical dynamics point of view. The canonical dynamics approach naturally supplies a post-Newtonian expansion of general
relativity. |
