Description

We present a version of the vacuum Einstein Equations where the field equations are defined for cross-section of a line bundle over the sphere and where the manifold of solutions is four-dimensional and defines the space-time itself. The cross-section them self become the characteristic surfaces of the space-time. (author). 9 refs, 2 figs
