Hamilton–Jacobi–Einstein equation

ID: hamilton-jacobi-einstein-equation

The Hamilton–Jacobi–Einstein (HJE) equation is a formulation of the equations of motion in the context of general relativity and serves to link quantum mechanics and general relativity. It is an extension of the classical Hamilton-Jacobi theory of motion, which describes the evolution of a dynamical system in terms of a scalar function, known as the Hamilton–Jacobi function or action.
