Title

What is meaning of non-uniqueness of FRW and Schwarzschild metrics?
Co-authors

Abstract

We argue that any theory of gravitation, based on the hypothesis of geodesic motion of test particles, must be invariant under geodesic (projective) mappings of the used space-time. The reason is that due to invariance of equations of geodesic lines under a continuous group of transformations of the coefficients of affine connection, there is a wide class of transformations of the geometrical objects of the Riemannian space-time which leaves invariant equations of motion of test particles. The FRW metric in cosmology and the Schwarzschild metric are good examples to make sure that the standard space-time metrics does not determine the gravitational field unequivocally even in a given coordinate system.
