General Relativity

General Relativity is a fundamental theory in mathematical physics and relativistic gravitation that formulates gravity as the curvature of spacetime caused by mass and energy, distinguishing it from Newtonian gravity and special relativistic field theories by its geometric description of gravitational interaction.
