I do have a question for you regarding lambda. If gravity is an attractive force and lambda repulsive, what is lambda when gravity is considered a curved spacetime phenomenon instead?

a. A curved spacetime with a different sign.

b. Negative pressure.

c. Antigravity.

d. Still a repulsice force

e. Dark energy.

f. None of the above (other?)


Thanks

PS. I am familiar with some of your work, and I find most of very interesting, but it has been quite a while since I've reviewed it. Perhaps you could update me.

Thank you for your complimentary interest.

Please let me know what you think of the referred URL on the curvature of space-time and the accompanying translation of geodesics.
