Strolling along gravitational vacua by Emine Şeyma Kutluk, Ali Seraj, Dieter Van den Bleeken

“…Abstract We consider General Relativity (GR) on a space-time whose spatial slices are compact manifolds M with non-empty boundary ∂M. We argue that this theory has a non-trivial space of ‘vacua’, consisting of spatial metrics obtained by an action on a reference flat metric by diffeomorpisms that are non-trivial at the boundary. …”
