FLRW area distance versus radial proper distance

2026-10-20
In
curvature
coordinates the
present
sphere
area
is
4
π
(
R
0
r
)
2
. Its transverse
area
distance
is
R
0
r
, whereas radial proper
distance
is
R
0
∫
0
r
d
r
/

−
K

2
. Confusing them invalidates
a
flat-
space
distance
identity in curved
geometry
.
