The variational formalism of general relativity refers to the mathematical framework used to derive the equations of motion and field equations of general relativity (GR) using the principles of the calculus of variations. This approach is closely related to the principle of least action, which states that the path taken by a physical system between two states is the one for which the action integral is stationary (usually a minimum).
