From these relations follows the claim made
above.
Without
using
our physical
knowledge
of
gravitation, we
have arrived
in
a purely
formal
manner
at
quite
distinct field
equations.
In order to
get
them into
a more
explicit
notation, we
multiply (74) by
gVT
and
sum over
the
index
r.
Considering
(73),
we
thus
get
