Schwarzschild affine connection

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around finding the affine connection for the Schwarzschild metric, with participants clarifying that this refers to the Christoffel symbols. A link to a resource containing relevant equations is provided, but it is noted that the material may be challenging to understand due to its complexity. An alternative suggestion is made to search for a more accessible version on arXiv. Participants express gratitude for the shared resources. The conversation highlights the need for clear references in advanced topics like general relativity.

Hi all!
Anyone knows where to find, online or on a book, the affine connection for the schwarzschild metric?
Thanks

Thread 'EPR revisited'

In an inertial frame of reference (IFR), there are two fixed points, A and B, which share an entangled state $$ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(|0>_A|1>_B+|1>_A|0>_B) $$ At point A, a measurement is made. The state then collapses to $$ |a>_A|b>_B, \{a,b\}=\{0,1\} $$ We assume that A has the state ##|a>_A## and B has ##|b>_B## simultaneously, i.e., when their synchronized clocks both read time T However, in other inertial frames, due to the relativity of simultaneity, the moment when B has ##|b>_B##...
