| Dec 15, 2020 at 17:10 | comment | added | Willie Wong | Doesn't the general Lovelock EOM involve second order derivatives of the curvatures (and so 4th order on the metric)? I guess it is not clear to me when the OP wrote that the ELE "is also of second order" whether "second order on the metric" is meant. | |
