In an earlier note
1)
I exercised criticism on the mentioned paper.
2)
My objection,
however, was based on a calculation error—as I have become persuaded, at the sug-
gestion of Mr. Krutkoff,[2] guided by a letter by Mr. Friedmann. I consider Mr.
Friedmann’s results correct and illuminating.[3] It is demonstrated that the field
equations permit, aside from the static solution, dynamic (i.e., variable with the
time coordinate), centrally symmetrical solutions for the structure of space.[4]
